THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, April 4, 1962 2 Writer Makes Debut As Dramatist By WILLIAM GLOVER Associated Press Drama Writer) NEW YORK (AP)--'I under- stand terribly well," the lady in} - the sari smiled, "how the bug gets you "Now I'd like original play." Clearly, Santha Rama Rau is enjoying her first theatrical adventure. With good reason. Miss Rau, a diplomat's daugh- ter and the author of many highly praised books, made her debut as a dramatist on Broad- way with her work, A Passage to India, based on E. M. For- ster's famous novel In London the show ran al- most a year. Its success with critics and public was a cinder- ella affair to intrigue its absentee creator. Miss Rau describes the sequence "T took it on five years ago after Chery] Crawford (a Broad- way producer) suggested one day that there had never been a play on Broadway written by an Indian "I started work and sent the script to Forster--he's 84 now-- and he approved. So I thought that was the end of any possible trouble. I was wrong. FORSTER ATTENDS "When I had the play finished Chery] didn't want it and neither did virtually all of the other producers on both sides of the Atlantic. "Somehow I enjoyed even the non acceptance. Because I learned so much in the writing "It began to look as though the play would never get on Finally a small repertory group in Oxford, England, offered $200 for performance rights "The production opened Jan 23, 1959. Forster himself made a curtain speech. All the London critics went down to Oxford "The reviews were enthusias- tic--and then everyone who had turned it down, wanted the play for London." A lady of graceful charm and urbane poise, Miss Rau chose the 1925 classic for stage trans lation because: "I feel Forster's amazing achievement was get- ting inside and understanding the Indian spirit. It was some thing only a poet could do." BLENDS CULTURES In heritage, training and in- teresis Miss Rau serenely blends Oriental and Western cultural influences. She is al most constantly on the go to far corners of the globe Miss Rau began: her travels in childhood when she went along with Sir Benegal N. Rau, her father, from their Madras home on assorted missions to Britain, South Africa, Japan and the United States. He be- came India's ambassador to the United States in 1948. {fo wrile an Best Seller List Compiled For Canada By THE CANADIAN PRESS Best sellers in Canada, compiled by Quill and Quire, monthly magazine of the Cana- dian book trade (previous month's position bracketed) FICTION 1.
