Original 'Faust' to Be Given Here Saturday

Students of German will have a chance to see the original version of Goethe's "Faust" this Saturday night, in a performance given by a travelling troupe of players from the Dartmouth German Club. The local performance is at 8:30 p.m. in Agassiz Theatre, with an admission fee of 75 cents.

Entitled" Urfaust," the play is a first draft of "Faust," and was written early in the author's life. The plot centers around the Margarita episode, with many seenes in the finished version omitted.

According to John Bruckman '53, president of the Deutsche Verein Turmwachter, the University group sponsoring the Dartmouth visit, the play is sounder dramatically than "Faust," and easier to produce.
