Theaters have been built which accomodate these opposite forms of staging, such as the large theater in Malmo, Sweden. But in making this possible, large sections of seating are unused (sketch No. 3). Others designs for the "total" theater have been proposed from time to time.

...along with the harshly materialistic, there is another America." In Braunschweig, West Germany, the Goslarsche Zeitung critic ran out of superlatives: "How can one write criticism when the whole evening was without a flaw?" Acclaim awaited the quartet in small towns as well as big: In Sweden's Malmo (pop. 192,498), they turned down an offer of a three-month teaching contract; in a town in the French Alps they were toasted in champagne by the local chamber music society.

...track world's favorite fable almost came true last week. Arne Andersson ran within a moment's breath of the "impossible" four-minute mile. In a race with Gunder Hagg at Malmo, Sweden, the 27-year-old grammar-school teacher accomplished the distance in 4:01.6, clipping a full second off his own world's record, set just a year ago. Although he was beaten by some six feet, 25-year-old Hagg also shattered the old mark with a time...
