November 30, 1928 CLUB AUXILIARY TO MEET New Books Clever Stagecraft · for First Play at Children's Theater The Evanstons Children's ·theater will open its season in Dec·e mber With a play which bristles with mechanical difficulities. "The Wizard of Oz" presents problems which tax the ingenuity of the producers, but they are being solved in such a way that the audience · wi 11 be denied none of the thrills which it craves. To begin with, there is the .cyclone which picks Dorothy up in Kansas where she has always lived with he; family, and sets her down unharmed in the midst of the Land. of Oz. Then there is the matter of the appearances of the Wizard in different forms. It requires a versatile person and tricks of lighting to make him appear as a man, a great head, a raging beast, and a ball of fire. And what could be more thrilling than to have the Tin ·W oodman and the Scarecrow torn, literally, limb from limb right on the stage, and then put together again by the ingenious Winkies-all right there before one's eyes? To say nothing of the Witch of the West who charms a rod of iron so that it becomes invisible to human eyes. And when this wicked witch comes to her punishment, and is actually melted by a pail of water· which is thrown over her-so absolutely melted that she vanishes completely, and the Winkies are called in to clean up the "mess." Such a rapid succession of magical happenings might daunt a less intrepid production manager than Douglas Bryant, and the Children's theater is fortunate iti having so expert a stage mechanician at its head. The problems of magic involved in this production are so fascinating that when he called for students from the School of Speech Northwestern university to work '""ith him, no less than 40 volunteered. Children's theater plays mean long houn of hard work for production crews.
