BY MARCUS it BOL'LWARF jLast Friday nj S:3O p.rti. T saw
the final performance of Lillian!Heilman’s "The Little Foxes" by jThe Shaw University Players in jthe Green leaf auditorium.
“The Little Foxes" is a 3-act jdrama depicting the innovation Iof industry in the South and the istruggle of caste and class. It jportrays the greed of the family iof Hubbards and one Regina jOiddens, who has an insatiablejdesire foi wealth and social no-!sltion. I agree with one literary |critic when he says that "the playis a story of sin and expiation.”
* * v
When the curtain rangdown at the end, the audiencehurst forth in thunderous ap-plause. The "handolappiiiK" jgrew in intensity as the play- jers came forth so make their jhows in the “curtain calls.'"Finally, Venise Erkin, who iplayed the part of “ReginaOiddens”, appeared, and whenshe did the ovation becamethe outburst of an electrifyingclimax.
* * * *
WITHOUT DOUBT, Venise Ev-1win was the star of the evening, jSire made the spectators hate“Regina” for her cold and ruth- 1
! less desire for wealth, power, andj social position but the listenersioveu ut j for those tender nio-
; merits when she became rupeu-] tantly human
Close contenders for the top
I spot were Melton Anderson asj “Ben Hubbard” and Jean Kim-
| brought ns “Alexander Oiddens.”J Melvin Anderson made the greedy
i “Ben Hubbard” a symbol of theI ruthless southern gentleman,
i while "Alexander Oiddens", play*1 ed by Jean Kimbrough, was the! essence of a “sweet young Miss’*I and her love for her father. She
was the only one who loved him.since her mother, Regina, and themale Hubbards used him for theirgain.
Joseph Jones, as the “Mr. Mar-• shall”, struck mo impressively in! Act I as a sauve, polished Indus-j trial magnate whose manners in-j deed were U) be admired. Notjknowing the plot of this drama at
! the time,. 1 had hoped to see! much more of him than the play
j permitted.It was indeed gratifying to wlt-
; ness the consternation of the; male Hubbards when they learned
I that their theft of Oscar Gid-! dens' bonds was discovered,
