"Dile play," says Professor Dowden in 'Primer': "is a strange and beautiful web, woven delicately by a youthful 'poet's fancy. What is aper- haps most remarkable about the play is the 'harmonious blending in it of widely different elements. It is as if threads of silken splendour were run together in its texture with a yarn of hempen homespun, .and both 'these with lines of 'dewy gossamer and fila- ments drawn from the moon beans." Although CPC's presentation of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" will con- centrate 'oii the musical portion, using the ,full score of Felix Mencelssohn's music for this play, several of the most important dramatic scenes will be enacted. Canadian actors and ac- tresses are nowein auditioned for b g parts in these dramatic highlights. Future 'Shakespearian plays in the CBC series will star.such famous stage and screen ,personalities as Ova Le Galli'onne, Maurice Evans, Walter Hampden and Raymond IVtassey, Sun- day, .November 6, 9.00 to 10.00 .pan., CBC's national network audience -will hear the .famous Canadian -born actor of stage and screen, Walter Huston, starring in .‘'`Othello," supported 'by Nan Sunderland, who in private life is 3,Irs, Walter Huston.
