The article presents information related to the theatrical production "My Heart's in the Highlands." According to the author the dramatization and the production of this play are perfectly in the spirit of writer William Saroyan's story. The author comments that Saroyan, as very few people can have escaped learning, is the young man who has published eight volumes in four years and made himself the most widely sneered at young writer of this era. The author thought that no story would be more difficult to dramatize or to stage, but the Group Theater, which puts on the play, has shown remarkable ingenuity in inventing a style of acting and presentation which seems somehow the equivalent of the author's manner.
