Mr. Gaiser brought along his

Gable accompanied them.
At 71, John Carradine qualifies
as an old trouper, but not the kind
that fades away. He's stilt going
strong, after performing in 178
plays and 424 motion pictures -
more than any other person
except the late Donald Crisp.
After flying into London
Sunday night from California, he
was driven. to Grand Bend.
Monday morning he began
rehearsing the role of Uncle
Stanley in "George Washington
Slept Here", which is being
staged at the Huron Country
Playhouse August 9-13.
"I'm a quick study", he said,
when asked about the brief
week's rehearsal before opening,
and added that after 57 years of
acting this should be no surprise.
Arthritis has bent his slim body
and gnarled his fingers. When he
begins speaking, this is forgotten.
He has a superb voice, flexible
and resonant.
Theatre is John Carradine's
first love. He has played an in-
credible variety of roles - from
Othello to the Ragpicker in The
Mad Woman of Chaillot.
He quoted the famous
American Shakespearean actor,
Richard Mansfield, "Acting is a
subjectabout which a great deal

may be learned, none of which
may be taught," What aspiring
actors ought to do, in his opinion,
is acquire as many of the related
skills as possible - speech, dan-
cing, French, and so on.
"The future of the theatre lies
in community theatres and
college theatres", he said.
"There's no place to learn the
business in this country (the
United States)."
In England young actors
receive basic traiing in repertory
theatre companies,
When his own career began, the
United States had over 100
repertory companies. "Today
an actor may play only ten parts
in his career", he said. He began
in his teens in a New Orleans
stock company.
Briefly, before World War Two,
he had his own repertory
company at San Francisco's
Ceary Theatre. Afterward, with
the promise of $20,000 from
theatrical angel and the same
company, he was ready to begin
again, His benefactor backed out,
put his money into a New York
show, and lost it all. Mr.
Carradine shipped his scenery to
New York. It was later used in
summer stock productions.
Nineteen forty-five was the
first of several years on the
summer theatre circuit. He
remained in the east for seven
and one-half years, then returned
to California. During 1975 he
again played in New York State
summer theatres.
In the early days, motion
pictures were made in a way that
at least paralleled legitimate
1N11541V.t tea'
theatre. "When they started
making talkies, they shot in
sequence." Now the set is the
base of operation, not the
sequence. It's an art for director
or cameraman, rather than
actor.
Among the many movies in
which he has had roles are Les
Miserables, Cardinal Richelieu,
Mary of Scotland, Captains
Courageous, The Three
Musketeers, Grapes of Wrath,
Around the World in 80 Days and
the Ten Commandments.
Recently he has completed a
motion picture, "Golden Rendez-
vous" in South Africa, filmed a
television show, made trips to
Texas and Chicago, and taken
part in a training film for the U.S.
Navy in San Diego.
Constantly moving, living out
of suit-cases,gets tiring4He hopes,
after leaving Grand Bend, to
spend some time at home.
"I hope I can go sailing, I don't
get the chance very often", he
said He owns a sea going
sailboat, with auxiliary engine.
Three of John Carradine's five
sons are actors. David Carradine
is well known as star of
television's "Kung Fu". Robert
played in another series,
"Cowboy"; while Keith first
made his mark in the movie,
"Thieves Like Us."
Of the three, David seems most
to have taken to heart his father's
advice about learning related
skills, When he applies himself to
a study - be it piano, dancing,
martial arts or meditation - he
does so with intensity, and usually
succeeds. A chip off the old block.
