July 23, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 21 CALLS LITTLE THEATER PECULIARLY AMERICAN Harold Elbvensperes Tells Threshold Players of Develop- ment of Drama Movement The ['hreshold Day er of Glencoe heard a splendid talk on the little thea- ter movement by Harold Ehrensper- ger, at their meeting last Tuesday eve- ning, at the home of Miss Rebecca Anthony, 684 Bluff street, Glencoe. Mr. Ehrensperger is well known as a lecturer and authority on the drama and staging. He is thoroughly versed not only in the theory but in the practice of the modern drama methods, and has had wide experience and study both here and abroad. He is the secretary of the Drama League of America, and at the present time is giving a series of lectures at North- western university. His knowledge of the subject, and his engaging way of talking made the evening particularly interesting. 19,000 Little Theaters He said that 19,000 little theaters were registered in the Drama Il.eague of America, and that this movement is one of the most phenomenal things that ever happened to the theater. These little theaters are being organiz- ed in high schools, small and large rlubs and in very big organizations, and through them thousands of people are becoming acquainted with types of plays that are of a higher character, more serious and better than produc- tions put on by the legitimate theater at the present time. They have their faults, of course, but their audiences are trained to know good plays, and to feel a deep interest in the theater. The little theater in America, said Mr. Ehrensperger, is an absolutely. new movement, something that is unique and entirely American. There is nothing like it in Europe.
