7: China
In the American view the hard belligerent core of Communism Is no longer to be found in Moscow but in Peking. The United States remains a seemingly indispensable support of the Nationalist regime in Formosa. Only in this way has America felt able to reconcile her long-standing sympathy for the Chinese people with her hostility to their Communist Government.

The Theatre
Introduced by CARL WILDMAN
During this period, although London's West End favoured comedies of behaviour, new ideas and new forms were emerging:
A new hint of poetic realism was introduced by the poets and composers of the Group Theatre
The chorus was reintroduced by T. S. Eliot
Joan Littlewood was struggling to form a company
Marie Lambert and Ntnette de
Valois began to shape an English ballet
Three men who succeeded in departing from the theatrical conservatism of the period give their impressions:
JOHN GIELGUD. whose voice and performance lent a new excitement to Hamlet and Richard 11, Chekhov, and Wilde TYRONE GUTHRIE. a vigorous experimenter in a non-naturalistic vein
MICHEL SAINT-DENIS , a French-man whose Compagnie des Quinze brought to London a revelation by its marriage of style and realism, and who stayed on to produce plays and to found a school
'Murder in the Cathedral': Friday at 8.5 p.m.
Sonata for two pianos and percussion played by NORMA FISHER and NIGEL COKE (pianos) and TRISTAN FRY and JAMES HOLLAND (percussion)
