...state; the liberals are poorly organized; the future at this point is not very bright. There are a few hopeful signs, however, the black militant community--particularly the Topeka health worker's unions--have had good rapport with McCarthy forces, and may provide the basis for a bi-racial coalition. The reformers met scattered success in the August party primary--they now control about fifteen per cent of the precincts.

And the bi-alphabetic edition of Androcles was duly published in 1962. Whether the Shaw Alphabet achieves widespread use remains to be seen...
Paul Schmidt (Oberon) and Maeve Kinkead (Titania) played their roles relatively straight with precision and intelligence. Which leaves Susan Channing's bi-sexual, jealous, and somewhat perturbed Puck, and if you don't know by now what watching Susan Channing on stage is like, I suggest you find out fast...
