The Hasty Pudding Club gave "The Duenna, or the Freak, the Frump, and the Friar" before an audience which crowded the club's theatre. The play was exceedingly well presented and acting, singing, scenery and costumes combined to make it most successful. Mr. Weaver as Sir Barney E'Claire made the hit of the evening. His rich humor, good acting and typical songs called forth loud applause. Olivia, his promised bride was well taken by Mr. V. S. Sears, whose dancing and acting were also very good. Mr. Prescott acted the part of the Duenna to perfection. The love scene between the Duenna and Sir Barny was one of the best parts of the play. The principals were good in their parts. Of the choruses the best were the Flunkeys at the beginning of the second act, the chorus of monks and nuns in the third act, and the ensemble at the end. The third act is very elaborate for an amateur performance but it was carried through with great energy and enthusiasm. With the exception of one or two hitches in the scene shifting everything passed off smoothly.
