Four Weeks Of Delight

The Malvern Festival from July 23 to August 18" this year promises to be even more success- ful than its five predecessorB.."

This year's programme is singu- larly comprehensive. The Interlude of Youth, which like the other plays will be given once in each of the Festival's four weeks, goes back to the roots of English drama. Doctor Faustus. Christo- pher Marlowe's play, shows the beginnings of Elizabethan magni- fcence. Henri Gheon's The Mar- vellous History of Saint Bernard is a play of moving beauty, which drew, high praise in London some years ago and which Sir Barry Jackson, the director of

the Malvern Festival. translated long before the Malvern Festivals be- gan.

The Moon in the Yellow River is a comedy, of modern Irish life. Mutiny, too, is modern. You never can tell, by Bernard. Shaw, is not so modern; but it's up-to-date and amusing.
