WI guest speaker discusses 'Drama' FORDWICH — The highlight of the meeting of the Women's Insti- tute was the guest speaker Mrs. Kay Smith of Teeswater who was introduced by Mrs. Holger Feld- skov. She spoke on the subject, "Drama". Mrs. Smith has worked mostly with young . people: She com- mented that just as.mucb work goes into a poor play as a good one; and that it takes good judg- ment to choose a play for young people, if it is to be successful. It must hold interest or the• audience's response will be poor.: Mrs. Smith suggested that you consider whom you have to work with, and also does the play adapt to the area? She said all people in the play are equally important, whether the part be large or small. If a stage director can be obtained this helps a great deal. She had some women do dif- ferent actions, and gave some in- sights into how one can act, and said on stage all actions have to count. The main thing in directing, she said, is making everyone work hard and yet feel important. , The meeting was held in the hall with the president, > Mrs. Richard Agla, presiding.
