How to involve more people in an interest in performing arts and role of the performing arts in an age of leisure time. Norman Nadel makes speech about the theater and its importance. Questions and answers. ~ John Booth introduces program. Explains the Rockefeller report. Introduces Norman Nadel, drama critic of the NY World Telegram. Discusses the importance of the arts to civilization. "The arts are not for the privileged few, but for the many." Introduces Rosenbaum. ~ Rosenbaum talks about forming a fraternity. The performing arts don't attract a large paying audience. He'd be concerned if the audience became too voluminous. Educators, not entertainers.

Nadel (?) quotes the book. ~ Panel members are asked what they think is the most urgent consideration in implementing an arts program in the country. ~ Josephs says to make it easier to perform.
