...Torn between duty and conscience is Sir Thomas More, played by Emlyn Williams. There is fresh comedy in the conformist cry for nonconformity as raised by A Thousand Clowns. As a nonworking anti-square, Jason Robards Jr. is supported by a prize cast of plodballs. Jean Kerr's Mary, Mary is baited with laughs, and Barbara Bel Geddes hooks every one, as this fun-fest nears the 700-performance mark...

Declared Kerr: "I can see an area developing which can take its place in the sun of modern America, developing an economy that will be the finest the people in this valley have ever known." As Kerr rhapsodized about the future, a lone fisherman in a flat-bottomed boat drifted by on the Arkansas, angling for catfish...
