Countess Aurelia, or the Mad woman of Chaillot, and her three daffy friends, the Madwomen of Passy, St. Sulpice and La Con corde, speak although irrationally, with the sweet voice of reason. The Countess lives by her il lusions, and allows others to en joy their own illusions. For in stance, her friend, the Madwoman of Passy, prefers to think that her dead dog, Dickie, is still alive. The Countess is willing to pretend that Dickie is present,begging for attention or pleading to jump up into someone's lap (although he is as invisible as Harvey, the 6-foot white rabbit). Reads Same Newspaper Likewise, the Countess solves the problem of reading the de pressing news of the day by al ways reading the same old faded newspaper. The paper she reads was chosen because, instead of frightening her with all the news that's fit to print, it brings her only stories which she finds pleas ' ant and cheerful. The works of the author, Jean Giraudoux, according to Dr. Lau rent LaSage, professor of romance ' languages, in an article contained in the original Broadway play program, contain no separation between reality and fantasy.
