Two Riverdale Country School boys, in costume, act in 'The Comedy of Errors' on an outdoor stage.

  Listen to the the story:  

"The early years, of course, the only stage available was our outdoor stage.

And Mr. Hackett was a great Shakespeare buff and almost every spring, a production of Shakespeare was given on the outdoor stage:

'Julius Caesar,' 'Coriolanus,' 'A Midsummer Night's Dream,' various others."
