Two student playwrights have works vying for first honors in the annual Eleanor Frost Play Contest. The shows were on the boards of the Hopkins Center's Studio Theatre for three nights in late May.
Robert Reich '68, who is an artist, actor, and class president as well as an aspiring writer, is the author of "I Met Her Only Yesterday in the 84th Street Sewer." The South Salem, N. Y., playwright's drama takes place, as the title suggests, in the picturesque sewer system of New York City.
The second contending playwright, Michael Taylor '66 of Paris, France, has written a five-scene epic centering around the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand prior to World War I. It is titled "Assassination at Sarajevo."
