BEGIN THE SEASON. First the poetry of Yeats, then this solo presentation also featuring short stories from Clark Ashton Smith (A Rendezvous in Averoigne) and Richard Matheson (Drink My Blood), read by Dr. H. Owll. A rendezvous where, now? The medieval province of Averoigne was located in the Southern half of France, the Northern half of that territory dominated by the walled city of Vyones, site of an impressive cathedral. In the Southern half could be found the town of Ximes; the main road of Averoigne ran between Ximes and Vyones in those days, straight through the thick, dark forest that blanketed the province. A river called Isoile still flows from the mountains in the northern part of the province to feed into a swamp in the south. Other towns and villages located in Averoigne include: Moulins, Les Hiboux, La Frenâie, Touraine, Sainte Zenobie, and Périgon. In the forest can be found haunted ruins, such as the Château of Fausseflammes (visited during the show) and the stronghold of Ylourgne. As for the Matheson story, it tells of one "Jules Dracula" and his quest for transcendence. All seasonal, all likely to be repeated. 3 hours pat-- Dr. H. Owll had to get up early (for him) the next day and go abroad by daylight, fortunately on an afternoon when clouds obscured the destructive solar force.
