The emergence of outstanding professional acting companies, some of which have for the first time won international recognition for the Canadian theatre, has stimulated public interest in theatre throughout Canada.

The Summer School of the Theatre conceives it to be its duty to serve all phases of Canadian theatre: to provide a sound basic training for actors of talent who may wish eventually to proceed to the professional theatre; to assist in every way the members of amateur drama groups who are concerned with providing good theatre in their communities; and to provide the essential training and experience for teachers in charge of drama programmes in the schools.

MUSIC The Department of Extension takes pride in the expansion and high artistic standard of its offerings in music during the University Summer Session.

This year the Opera School plans to ally itself with the celebration of the Mozart Bi-Centenary Festival and to present the opera, "Cosi Fan Tutte". In addition, a new course in Lieder and Concert Literature will be offered, and its instructor wiU be one of the world's outstanding singers of Lieder. Through its offering in music the Department of Extension hopes to meet the needs of our many talented singers and to contribute to the development of the musical life of western Canada. Director of Music for the Department's Summer School is Mr. Nicholas Goldschmidt, under whose guidance and inspiration the Department's musical offerings have been developed. 44 The University of British Columbia Summer School of Opera July 9 - August 18 (Auditions July 3-6) Opera Workshop Performance, August 20 | n Presentation of full opera, August 27 - 30 j Staff NICHOLAS GOLDSCHMIDT, Director of Music for the Summer School.

SUMMER SCHOOL OF CREATIVE WRITING JULY 3 - August 17 The founding of the fourth major department in the Fine Arts program, the Summer School of Creative Writing, constitutes a return to a tradition as old as the art of writing itself: that of a community of writers, meeting together frequently, for the purpose of intellectual intercourse and the exchange of criticism of each other's manuscripts, a practice which inevitably resulted in the vigorous artistic growth of all concerned. The university, through skillful coordination of its summer courses, can create an artistic atmosphere even more intense and productive than that which casually occured in the older, more parochial European societies. In a situation where art is not a curiosity but a way of life, the workshop courses will serve today's writers as the English coffeehouse or the French salon once served their predecessors. Established writers will grow in stature through association with others of similar interests, 48 The University of British Columbia and young writers will receive advice and encouragement from those who have already attained recognition in their various fields of artistic endeavour. Staff: Melvin Walker La Follette, B.A., Washington, M.A. Iowa, Lecturer in English, Director of the Summer School of Creative Writing. Educated broadly in the fine arts, Mr. La Follette served his writing apprenticeship in the workshops of such distinguished writers as Robert Lowell, Richard Eberhart, John Berryman and Paul Engle. Since his first publication, in 1952, in The New Yorker his poems have appeared in numerous periodicals on both sides of the Atlantic, among them Time And Tide, Botteghe Oscure, and Poetry (Chicago). He won the New Poets of the Mid-west award in 1954, the same year he joined the staff of the English Department of the University of British Columbia. Lister Sinclair, B.A. British Columbia, M.A. Toronto, Guest Lecturer in English, Special Lecturer for the Summer School of Creative Writing. A writer of exceptionally wide interests and capacities (his M.A. was in mathematics), Mr. Sinclair has been writing and acting for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation since 1942. He first came into prominence in May 1944 with two radio plays for the CBC program Stage 44 and with "A Play on Words" in November of the same year. This play gave its name to a collection of twelve radio plays published in 1948. In a period of ten years the CBC has performed more than thirty of his plays, including "Socrates", "Encounter by Moonlight", "Return to Colonus", and "The Summit and the Tide". This last play has been referred to as "the most perfect poetic drama of the modern period". Mr. Sinclair has written for the legitimate stage and television as well as for radio. He brings to the school a range of experience that would be difficult to match, impossible to duplicate. James B. HaU, M.A., Ph.D. Iowa, will give the Fiction Workshop in the Summer School of Creative Writing, 1956. He is Assistant Professor of English, University of Oregon and co-author of Modes of the Short Story (MacMillan, 1955). He has published short stories in Kenyon Review and other outstanding American Journals. In 1955 he was Writer-in-Residence, University of Iowa, and comes to the University of British Columbia from the University of Florida, where he has been a visiting Professor of Creative Writing. |HB Admission: Admission to the School of Creative Writing, for both credit and non-credit students, will be on a competitive basis, and enrolment will be limited in I both categories.
