Extravaganza '64
The New Extrav !
The show is under way again, cutting has been done and We're rolling. Working on a script, dug deep from the devilishly cunning mind? of David Flude, and with a cast which contains quite a bit of talent—a welcome change—the Producer, Jeremy Agar is building up what promises to be a really first-rate show.
If at any time you hear asphyxiated groans like those of a mangled cow—don't worry it's only the singers practising their parts; if you hear a sound like a herd of wild Hull Elephants on heat never fear it's only the Male Ballet learning their steps and if as you lie in bed at nights you think you can see the ghostly spectre of Cassius Clay or better still Christine Keeler or if four young men with hair all over their faces lake you by the hand and say "We love you Yeah. Yeah Yeah don't phone for the Psyche Department. It's just that you've caught "Extravanitis", an Ancient Student disease that manifests itself around about Capping time every year.
You will he glad to hear that thin disease has a cure. You simply go along to the Studdass Office a week or so before Capping and buy tickets for Extrav. It's simple, it's easy and all it will cost you is the price of a ticket at a Student concession. You will never have to worry again. In fact after a performance of Extravaganza when you've seen what mighty messes the principal characters can get themselves into, you'll wonder why you ever worried about your small problems at all.
Remember, try some Extravaganza this Capping—it will do you good—you'll be so glad you did!
