Perhaps the unprecedented character of the Loeb Drama Center will itself create obstacles in fulfilling the theatre's original purpose, Joel F. Henning '61, president of the Harvard Dramatic Club, speculated during an informal club discussion of the Center last night.
He stressed that construction of the facility was first stimulated by the vitality of Harvard dramatics and by the multiplicity of groups interested in theatrical productions. "Through the pooling of technical, ticket, and publicity personnel, which will be necessary in the new theatre, these groups will tend to lose much of their separate identity," Henning continued.
Among Harvard theatrical groups, "the HDC alone may have the institutionalized character and broad range of interest to keep going," he said.
In other action, Marshall R. Pihl, Jr. '60, explained the operation of HDC's newly instituted lighting and set construction "lab," which begins Thursday at 3 p.m. in Agassiz Theatre. "We're going to approach the problem as though we had very limited equipment at our disposal," Pihl said.
