With a relatively small cast, in which several chorus members also play minor roles, director John Ashworth has managed to fuse ancient with modern. His two leads, Dionysus (Dede Schmeiner) and Nanthias (David de Berker) as the god and her servant, each display distinctive brands of comedy. Schmeiner makes her Dionysus an impish figure, a lusty Peter Pan, while her slave opts for a broader comic style, occasionally reminiscent of the Three Stooges. These two mug and grin at each other and, since the Fogg's courtyard leaves both stage and seating level, often draw the audience in on their...

Orloff Miller identified one of the accused, Elmer L. Cook, 42, as among their assailants. "There is no question in my mind," Olsen persisted under tough cross-examination by Defense Attorney Joe T. Pilcher Jr., "that Mr. Cook is the one who attacked...
Severe Handicaps. But there was considerable doubt that Cook had struck Reeb. And there was no direct evidence at all to seriously incriminate the other two defendants, William Hoggle, 37, and his brother Namon, 31. The lack of testimony was no fault of Ashworth's. He worked under handicaps far more severe than those that usually bedevil
...hinted darkly that Reeb did not die simply from his wounds. The civil rights movement wanted headlines, he contended, and there was "a motivation on the part of certain civil rights groups to have a martyr." Pilcher could produce no hard evidence that "they willingly let him die," and Ashworth riddied the claim with objections. But Pilcher had made his point...
