...Sukarno himself is less a strongman than a symbol. He must rule in partnership, and only two organizations-the army and the Communist Party-have the efficiency and administrative knack to help him govern. In naming his ten-man "inner" Cabinet last week, Sukarno clearly chose the army. Not a single post went to a Communist or a fellow traveler. Able ex-Premier Djuanda was named First Minister and Finance Minister. The army got two plums: the important Ministry of Security and Defense went to Army Commander Lieut. General A. Haris Nasution and the Production Ministry to Colonel Suprajogi...
...though the situation may be, stocky (5 ft. 7 in., 155 Ibs., 38-28-38 in his padding) T. C. Jones is sticking to his specialty. "I'd like to play Dame May Whitty's part in Night Must Fall," says he, "or Bankhead's in The Little Foxes.Half the time people don't even know I'm not a woman.

Whatever one may think of this line of reasoning, it must be admitted that Berghof has succeeded in doing almost everything he set out to do.

And by having spikes driven into the poles, Berghof has enabled people to scamper up to a third level. In the garden scene where...
...Viola-Aguecheek duel is lengthy (there must be five minutes without a word), but hilarious all the way. And to inspirit the combatants, Berghof has his Dancing Zany beat a drum during the dueling--an historically authentic touch. There are many other instances of inspired staging. And at the end, instead of having everyone exit and leave Feste alone to sing the closing song, Berghof brings everybody on stage, even Malvolio, and has each principal sing a solo bit as in a massed opera buffa finale...
Viola is the one honest, sincere, and normal person in the play. Yet for most of the time she must go about abnormally disguised as a young boy, who looks like her twin brother Sebastian. The problem was quite different in Elizabethan times, since actresses were interdicted and both roles were taken by young boys. Miss McKenna is able to convey a zestful boyishness without ever losing her innate womanliness. And more than any one else in the cast, she pays attention to the poetic qualities of the text (though on opening night she sometimes lowered her voice...
