■j With the Community Players =
Last Sunday’s rehearsal for "Life
with Father" was the first attempt
without books. The director says there
.must be two types of actors. The ones
that think they know theii’ lines pretty
well and find that they don’t, and the’
ones who are worried that they don't
know their lines ‘ and are agreeably
surprised to find that they do. The
cast of “Life with Father” seems to
be about equally divided. On the whole
it was a satisfying first attempt.

Several persons including Mrs. Bur
rell and Mrs. Earl Hamilton have
Victorian era clothes which they have
kindly offered to lend the wardrobe
department. There have also been
some offers from ladies in town
do sewing for the costumes.

The play calls for an aspidistra
rubber plant ‘and also that elusive
china pug dog. Anyone who would like
to lend any of these properties is
asked to phone Mrs. AL Overend (712).
Work will begin this week on the set
for the play, and the dates of pre
sentation are now definitely set for
June 23rd and 24th, Tickets will soon
be on sale.

At the general meeting of the Wing
ham Community Players last Wednes
day, it was decided to prepare a three-
ac.t play early next fall expressly for
fall fair entertainment. Last year
many enquiries were made from fall
fair boards to take “Our Town" on
tour. As the lighting and other factors
Were rather complicated advantage
could not be taken of these offers.

The club has decided to try to make
several big improvements to the
Town Hall stage next season and this
seems to be a good way of raising
the necessary funds. No more meet
ings of the Wingham Community
Players will be held until the end of
the summer, but of course rehearsals
continue and we will have news for
you from them.
