Edna St. Vincent Millay at 8 p.m. Friday at Center Stage. The one-act
verse play will serve as a curtain-raiser for “A Phoenix Too Fre
quent” by British playwright Christopher Fry.

sale for $1 at the Student Union
desk in Old Main.
The legendary Miss Millay,

nineteenth century vehicle.” Born

poet was graduated from Vassar
in 1917 and set out to capture
New York with her writing.
O'Neill In Company
Lost in the tempestuous life of
the big city, the sensitive poet
found a refuge with the Province
town Players in the old converted
stable theater on Macdougal street.
The playhouse was operated as a
workshop and literary temple
where poets and playwrights
could work out their ideas in
freedom. The Little Theater move
ment in the United States after
World War I relied heavily on
the one-act play form. It was here
that Miss Millay penned “Aria da
Capo.” The play was successfully
premiered by the Provincetown
Players in 1919.
James Light, who played Thyr
sis the shepherd, turned out to
be the original director of Eu
gene O’Neill, then just another
promising playwright with the
Provincetown company.
Some years later, Director Kel
ly Yeaton, assistant professor of
dramatics in charge of the Center
Stage production, directed an
other member of the original
Provincetown cast, Charles, Ellis,
in his first professional directing
job under Actors’ Equity at a
theater in Orangeburg, N.Y.
See Lighter Side
A modern classic, “Aria da
Capo” is seldom produced today,
but few other one-act plays have
such musical form. The play
wright has produced a charade
in three parts. Although the simple
parable can be applied to any
human being smothered by mis
understanding, the author has
projected images of herself into
the play. x
In Aria A and C we see the
lighter side of a younger and
carefree Edna St. Vincent Millay.
In Aria B there are sharp over
tones of the self-persecuted and
disillusioned poetress. Seeping
through these undercurrents in
the symbolism of the play is a
plea for peace.
