Salzedo in the writing of the method books for the concert harp. Miss Dysart was a music major at SMS last vpr mH i pioneer musical comedies to incorporate completely the lyricl of songs into the dialogue of the book. Contrary to the majority of such shows, "Paint Your according to Frederick Loewe, composer of the music, is a complement of the in which the music tsTO inte-1 gral part of the show." Because it was such an innovation in musical comedy, New York critics were slightly mixed in their opinions of the value of the production.

Three of the major newspapers applauded the. new concept wildly; one found it "too wordy." By the time the traveling production was ready to begin its performances, the script had been revised so that it moved with greater speed and much more vigor. Of the road show performances, one rational magazine reviewer" bid: "The Alan Jay Lerner book is lusty, down-to-hardpan Americana that shoves across the state with the vigor of a civilization on the march. There is hollerin' excitement in the birth of a boomtown called Rumson." Little Theater is producing its version of Taint Your Wagon" from the script for the road-show performances. A great deal-of research was done by Mr.

Lerner on the historical elements of the Califor nia Gold Rush before he began to write, Four years were spent in research and contemplation of the basic theme. He initially visualized 'V 7 two wagons, one going hopefully to the gold country and the other coming back in despair." He wanted to tell story: of. what lay be tween tneir coming ana going. The basic plot of "Paint Your Wagon" deals with the birth and death of a ghost town in the California foothills. According to Daniel Mann who directed the original Broadway production, "Paint Your Wagon" is a story about a guy fho has a dream and pursues it.

Its theme is that a man must follow his deepest impulses. Ben Rumson's dream is to make something of his life and his concern for his daughter creates a conflict because a miner mustvbe on the move and can-hot hope to establish a stable home for his child. The gold rush town of Rumson, which Ben founded, was his dream in which he could do both. the gold ran out." After closing on Broadway, "Paint Your Wagon" enjoyed' a successful run throughout the United States and then moved on to England and Australia where it was extremely popular. Kenneth Cantril, who will play the leading role of Ben Rumson ra tne bpnngfield Little Theater production, sang the role of Ju- lio, the romantic lead in the (Overseas versions.

James Bar- ton, Eddie Bowling and Burl Ives nlaved the leadine role on Broadway. Springfield Little Theater will open the production of "Paint Your Wagon" for a two-night run September 25 in the Central High School auditorium.
