TALENTED PERFORMANCE

BY CASTLETHORPE

AMATEURS

On Saturday 3rd. May, Castlethorpe Amateur Dramatic Society gave an excellent performance at Castlethorpe of the farce “Double or Quit” by John Charlton.

Those taking part were William Ray, Arthur Cowley, Christine Harpur, Frederick Bridge, Lillie Mothersole, Edwin Bates, Alice Bridge, Reginald Rayner, Doris Paris, Joyce Stones, and Herbert Bridge.

It is difficult to single out any of the performers for special praise, but the new-comers to the Society schooled by their efficient producer Herbert Bridge, showed excellent promises, whilst other members of the cast portrayed their characters with humour an understanding. The timing was excellent and altogether it was a most finished performance.

Frederick Keeves was responsible for the scenery.

The Women’s Institute for whose funds the play was given benefit to the extent of £8 and extend their most grateful thanks. To all performers and helpers.
