WARREN TAYLOR f No play by Shakespeare has had more variedinterpretations than The Tempest Prospero represents thetriumph of human forgiveness one interpreter says Another however finds him a selfish tyrannical bully chockful of vanity a fourflusher The play Tillyard conjectures is Shakespeares serene worldpicture Caliban symbolizes beastly power Ariel angelic andProspero the apex of human wisdom Thus the aging Shakespearebecomes a pseudophilosopher with a pseudoworld view Not so at all conjectures Lytton Strachey Prospero is only an unpleasantly crusty personage in whom a twelve years monopoly of theconversation has developed an inordinate propensity for talking And to him the aging Shakespeare is here half enchanted by visions of beauty and loveliness and half bored to death

James and thecourtly circles The present production by The Oberlin DramaticAssociation without the nuptial dance of the nymphs and reapers reduces pageantry and the spectacular to a minimum It rather delivers the piece with a quiet restraint and dignity pleasantly enough in a minor mood The staging is excellent the grassy sands and cavernoustowering rocks of Miss PeggyClymers seacoast sweeping around the apron stage the precise neatness and richness of colors in Mrs Daryle Seils costumes and the magnificent stage pictures andtriangular patterns with Prospero Ariel and Juno variously perched
