Drama Club Will Play . . . — To Hell With You

Drama Club Will Play . . .

To Hell With You

To Hell With You" by Frederick Whitney is the play chosen by the Drama Club for this year's. Tournament. It is a comedy about a frustrated, unhappily-married woman who has bad dreams, (the safest type of play for a half-drunk Tournament audience) [unclear: Gavin] Yates is producer, a position he held last year with considerable success. Great things are expected.

Bill Sheat and Bernadette Canty take the leads. Bill's record is of course well known, and as proof of his versatility he has been cast in a part that is against his natural type—that of a wicked demon. Bernadette was a very successful lead for "Spring 1600," and has acted for other drama clubs in the city. John Merchant. Ross Gilbertson and Ian Rich are active and experienced members of the club. They should give good performances, as it must be admitted that they have been type-cast—John as a lover. Ross as an assistant demon and Ian as an angel. All have been to Tournament before and will easily adapt themselves to such conditions. Paulino Kormode is a fine actress, having this year performed in "Cockpit." Rosemary Love-grove is to be property mistress, stage manageress and in charge of any other work that requires handy hands.

All in all a strong team. If time allows enough rehearsal, V.U.C. should do well in drama this year.
