CONCERNING THE INVISIBLE PLAYMATES OF OUR CHILDHOOD

SETTING

One set is used throughout. It is an open glade in the forest. The trees and flowers center about a Maple Tree, beside which is a low hill of yellow buttercups. The changes of scene are effected by what I might best describe as a carved Swiss wooden toy. This is made with three sides, each side representing or symbolizing, if you like, the scene played. The Greeks called this a periaktos. It is on rollers and easily turned. Side one is a cottage; side two, the great twisted roots of the Maple Tree and the head of an owl; and to side three the canvas of the circus tent is hung.
