THE WEDDING GUEST”
TO BE PRODUCED SOON
Dramatic Department to Stage Play
January 25 and 26
A wedding, for all the world re
sembling a real wedding, with bride
and groom, bridesmaids, a best man.
flower girls, a minister, and a room
full of guests, will be seen soon after
the raising of the curtain in “The Wed
ding Guest,” one of the most interest
ing Barrie plays which Will be produced
on the campus January 25 and 26.
The plot of the play is not unusually
new, but it is handled in an extremely
clever manner. The tenseness which
is carried throughout the play is re
lieved by extremely clever comedy.
The majority of the characters are
Scotch and, as the play is supposed to
take place in Scotland, particularly
good opportunity is furnished for dia
lect work.
The story tells of a young girl who
has been kept unusually innocent, ei
ther because of her father of because
of his lazyness. She marries a worldly
artist and only a few days after her
wedding all of her ideals are shattered
by the man whom she trusted. The
extraordinary character of the girl,
Margaret, is shown in the way in which
she meets the new situation.
The story of Margaret is sad enough;
but it is Kate Omnaney, the girl who
loved the artist, Paul Digbv, before his
wedding who has the hardest problem
to meet and she proves to be a woman
of extremely good character in spite
of the fact that conventional society
does not accept her.
Margaret is played by Lorna Cool
idge whose interesting work has already
been seen this year on the campus.
The role of Kate Omnaney is played
bv Hildagarde Repenin, who will be
seen in a leading part on the Guild
hall stage for the first time. Mar
garet’s father who is known as the
easy-going Fairbairn will be played by
Claire Keeney, whose work has caused a
great deal of interest for the past three
years. Arthur Johnson will play the
part of Paul Digbv, the artist- The
other members of the cast are: Captain
Armitage, the best man at the wedding:
Delbert Faust; Rev. Mr. Gibson, Virgil
Mulkev; Meikle, the butler, John Elle
stad; Blanch Ripley, the bridesmaid,
Mabel Gilham; Lady Jannet Dun
woodie, Margaret Nelson; and Jenny
Geddes, Doris Pittenger.
