The play itself was virtually a sellout for its seven perfor-kances. It attained prominence outside of the college by being the world premiere of the Ma-kin version. The production, directed by Dr. C. Richard Gillespie, starred Dee Stephens as Phedre, the love-torn Ger-elan queen, John Glover as Ityppolytuft, Lynn Summerell as Theramene, Barbara Wer- 4ecke as Oenone, Timothy Perdinand as the king, and Sharon Lloyd as Arice.
