DRAMATIC CLUB SEEKS ACTORS FOR FALL PLAY

SHOW DEMANDS VARIED SKILLS FOR PRODUCTION

Tryouts for the Dramatic Club's Fall Play will be held at the Big Tree Swimming Pool next to the Hygiene Office today. From 2 o'clock until 6, and from 7 until 11 o'clock auditions will be given all undergraduates with no discrimination as to class or previous experience. The first brief trials will test only the voices and appearances of the candidates. Next week the director of the play, a New York coach, will select the actual players for the fourteen male parts. Radcliffe and Erskine School are counted upon to supply twelve actresses.

New Comedy

Unable to find a student-written play the Dramatic Club will introduce to America James Bridie's "Jonah and the Whale," a comedy fresh from London's Westminster Theatre. Mr. Bridie is an exponent of the Irish Dramatic School, and has written among other plays the well-known "Tobias."

The complicated nature of the production, which calls for a whale's belly as one of the six scenes, demands skill of all sorts. The Dramatic Club is on the hunt for electricians, carpenters, stage-designers, publicity agents, property men, business managers, and patronesses. On December 10, 11, and 12 the play will show at the Peabody Playhouse, Boston.
