Abstrakt: One of the most curious and fascinating events of this season was the production of the play "The Eumenides" of Aeschylus by Fordham College. Amateur theatricals have a rare way of offering sudden and unexpected delights. The Fordham "Furies" had a number of distinctions. First of all, for an amateur performance, it had exceptional polish, and a lack of self-consciousness in the acting. Few persons in the audience may have understood the original Greek in which the play was spoken. Last year Fordham presented the play "Oedipus" as an unforgettable mystery. Fordham is a Catholic college. The Greek plays given there are sermons.
