When Max Reinhardt presented "A Mid-Summer Night's Dream" in the Hollywood Bowl, the San Francisco Opera and the Berkeley Greek Theatre, he sought out Max Ree to design the Settings and the Costumes. They were of such eye-filling class and grandeur that they will long be remembered. Max Ree's sketch upon a breakfast Menu, made while discussing the Berkeley Greek Theatre production with Max Reinhardt, who O.K.ed it over his toast and coffee. And when Reinhard't "A MidSummer Night's Dream was placed on film by Warner Bros. -First National, once again, the costumes were designed by Max Ree. Their splendor in design and execution reflects the versatility and brilliance of Max's talents as a top-flight Designer, for both Film Production and the Theatre. WE SERVE Page 13
