Art for
Aggies 9 Sake
By WELTON JONES
With no fanfare at all, we will launch into the topic
for today: Audiences at A&M. A long-festering 1 pet peeve
of this column, the situation here was brought to a head at
the Town Hall performance of the Four Freshmen Tuesday
night.
The group who attended, spread thinly through the
yastness of G. Rollie White
Coliseum, were not, to say
the least, a perfect audience.
They harassed the perform
ers unduly, this column
thought, they coughed excessive
ly and, worst of all, left in droves
at the wrong times.
Performers of the Four Fresh
men’s caliber, of course, are past
being rattled by a poor audience.
But any entertainer varies some
what in direct proportion to the
reactions of the group in attend
ance.
And any entertainers will
doubtlessly feel it when the aud
ience, after intermission, starts
what must seem like a whole
sale migration out.
That’s what intermissions are
designed for.
In the past, A&M audiences
(made up not only of students)
have been often characterized by
both lack of courtesy and exces
sive exhuberance. They have
been called “honest” groups who
let a performer know what they
think.
Be that as it may. There are,
nevertheless, those whose even
ing can be fully destroyed by
members of this “honest” aud
ience.
It is on the behalf of these that
DRAMA—The first meeting of
C. K. Esten 1 and Dr. Sam South
well’s production group of “Mac
beth” is to be held Tuesday at
7:30 p.m. in the Music Hall.
This meeting will be for the
purpose of explaining their pro
posed treatmept of the play and
explain their vehicle. Some scenes
will be read. The pair empha
sized that no positions in the
production are definite yet, and
urged anyone in the community
with any desire, talent and/or
experience, to attend the meet-
ing.
It is hard to express this col
umn’s love and respect for Shake
speare; it is probably something
that no one really “outgrows”.
In this column’s opinion, the call
by Messrs. Esten and Southwell
is mandatory to all admirers of
Shakespeare.
SGULRTURE — Mi's. Emalita
Terry, of the Memorial Student
Center’s Creative Arts Group,
reports that the sculpture class
es of the Hungarian, Joseph Tom-
pa, mentioned here some weeks
ago, are full and over-crowded.
There is a waiting list, but one
stands a good chance of getting
in a class sooner or later, she
says.
this column makes an appeal to
audiences at A&M. Two old
cliches say it best, perhaps; “Do
unto others as you would have
them do to you” and “If you
can’t say something good, say
nothing.”
Remember these, express your
enthusiasm at the right time and
leave at the intermissions.
Thanks.
Mrs. Terry and some of her
painting flock plan to journey to
San Antonio over the weekend
for the well-known “River Art
Show” held annually on the San
Anfonio River.
