Student Playwrights
Aided by '5 O'Clock'
By ANN PALMER
Student playwrights have
the chance to see their origi
nal plays produced by the
5 O'Clock Theater, in per
formances held at 5 p.m. every
Tuesday in the Little Theater
in the basement of Old Main.
The theater was started by
Warren S. Smith, associate pro
fessor of theater arts, as a place
to produce selected plays written
in his playwriting course.
Smith recommends the best
plays written in his Playwriting'
21 class to members of 5 O'Clock
and from there students interested',
in direction of the scripts are free'
to select and experiment.
"The main feature of such a
project is that interested persons,
can experiment and learn tech
niques of the theater at will,"
commented Judson Sanderson,
In order to avoid duplication
of social activities, TIM will
support ISA CLUB HUBANA
rather than holding its
SHAMROCK SWING
on Saturday.

Students interested in theater
experimentation can select a
recommended script to work
with. They must then select a
cast. recruit a technical crew
and direct the production.
In a 5 O'Clock theater produc
tion lighting, costuming and sound
experimentation are widely used.
All procedures are the same . as for
a large scale production except
that no major scenery is con
structed.
Some "script-in-hand" produc
tions are given each year in
which the rehearsal time is
shortened.
Since all casts and crew are
recruited by the play's director,
the 5 O'Clock Theater sponsors
teas at 3 p.m. every Tuesday and
Thursday in the Green Room of
Schwab to provide a means of
contact for all persons interested
in the project.
