...Westminster Abbey. "Deplorable," complained the museum's trustees. "It buries 20 years' work." With near unanimity, scholars condemned Walker's thought of splitting up the museum's gigantic collections. "How should we like to visit the Library of Congress in Richmond, Va.," demanded Manuscript Scholar Julian Brown of London University. "A national library," warned the Sunday Times sternly, "is perhaps the most potent symbol we have left of an English culture...
...forefront of the U.S. dramatic avant-garde is in Europe-a band of strolling anarchist players who are emigrants from off-Broadway. When a failure to pay back taxes shuttered the Living Theater in 1963, Co-Founders Julian Beck and Judith Malina took their troupe to Europe. They have been there ever since, touring 95 cities in four Volkswagen buses. In addition to nondelivery of scenery, the company has had to cope with censorship in Spain, riots in France, and fistfights in several Italian towns. This sort of mishap scarcely fazes an outfit that is run like a permissive kindergarten...
Surprisingly, for a burly, blunt-talking child of the London slums, Guitarist-Lutanist Julian Bream seems to have eardrums as fragile as orchid petals. What he calls the "bloody row and chaos" of contemporary life-jangling telephones, whirring machinery, blaring car horns-can make him physically ill.

It may be that truly good men remain so only as long as they refuse to do homage to the Market; it may be that taking unhealthy gifts is itself an end to innocence. Whatever he is, Julian is capable of honor and, in a popular sense defined by the play, love...
...Wingert, walking awkwardly, issuing the one un creditable accent in the show, makes Albertine Prine a sheet metal figure. Miss Hellman has given her some of the most perceptive lines in the show, but Miss Wingert delivers them in a sterile dead-pan. Bro Uttal is mis-cast as Julian Berniers. He looks and acts too young for the part of a many-time failure, even a romantic one. Hugh M. Hill, as Henry Simpson, is, on the other hand, physically perfect for his part. As Hill stalks onto Frank Hartensteins' excellent set, he is a six-feet-something Pinter...
