Abstract
Actress Helen Hayes visited the School of Drama from March 10-11, 1971, as the first artist in the E. Melba Johnson Kirkpatrick Foundation Theatre Artist Series. The series was made possible by a 1968 donation from Charles S. Kirkpatrick and named for his sister-in-law, a director of IWU's theatre. The visit coincided with the Festival production of Shakespeare's "The Tempest," and she provided a critique of one of the performances along with two other guests, Willard Welsh and Alvina Krause. She also talked informally with drama students.
