"SQUARING THE CIRCLE"
BRIGHT RUSSIAN COMEDY Next Saturday and on Monday, October 3, the drama, group of the Christchurch Left Book Club will present the hilarious Russian comedy farce, “Squaring the Circle,” at the Radiant Hall. This play is a complete departure from the serious drama “Till the' Day I Die,” successfully produced by the group last season. Its exaggeration of the.search by earnest young Communists for a new code of love, romance, and morality will have its appeal for New Zealand audiences as it did for Soviet theatregoers. The Moscow Art Theatre alone has already played it more than 1000 times. The play is by Valentine Katayev, one of the foremost humorous and satirical writers of the Soviet Union.
