The first undergraduate performance of "Laugh It Off" will begin at 8 o'clock tonight in the Hasty Pudding Theatre. Last night before a house crowded with graduates the cast reached the degree of excellence previously set for it by its professional visitors. Graduates were agreed that the show is undoubtedly the best of the four excellent productions coached by Louis Silvers.
The book of the play, advertised as a "nonsensical musical farce in two acts," is the work of J. C. Murphy '25 and W. S. Martin '26, Lyrics are by Joseph Alger '22, E. F. Craig '25, G. P. Ludlam '25, and J. C. Murphy '25. The music has been prepared by L. S. Abbot '24, Joseph Alger '22, E. F. Craig '25, Thayer Cumings '26, M. H. Harris '24, Theodore Pearson '25, and Frank Taussig '23.
