WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 21, 1925 GENUINE THRILL INGUILD PLAY "Outward Bound" Promises to Provide the Unusual in Dramatic Endeavor RIVER STYX INVOLVED Carefully Selected Cast in Performance By L.T.D. In considering the play "Outward Bound," to be presented by the North Shore Theatre Guild, one is reminded of John Kendrick Bangs' story, "The Houseboat on the Styx," and can at once realize how possible it is to treat a serious subject, even death itself, in a most high comedy manner. In the first act of the play the climax provides a thrill that comes bbut once in a theatrical season, say the critics. A stronge company of shipmates, mysti- fied by a vaguely oppressive feeling of unreality and uncertainty, suddenly dis- cover that every last one of them is dead. Their shop, unmanned and with- out lights, is gliding noiselessly across the river Styx, and when one of the characters, in terror, asks the sole at- tendant whether they are bound for heaven or hell, the answer is, "Both! It's the same place, you see!" Among the players who will present this extraordinary play will be several appearing for the first time with the Guild, although not new to the north shore. New Faces in Play Mrs. Cecil Barnes of Lake Forest, a sister of Mrs. Samuel Chase will play the part of Mrs. Cliveden-Banks. Ernst von Ammon, whose artistic work has long been recognized, will have the pivotal part, the Rev. William Duke. William Van Kirk of the New Trier high school faculty, makes his first ap- pearance as '"'Scrubby," and his work has won great praise from those who have witnessed rehearsals. Miss Julia Hanks, dramatic director at Roycemore, will play "Ann" opposite the "Henry" of Ogden Cook. L. IL. Buchanan, J. Williams Macy and Guy Stuart Bailey will carry important roles in their faith- ful and sustained manner. In no respect is the growth of dra- matic art in this community more notice- able than in the attitude of the audi- ences. Where once personal congratula- tions to a friend on a part "wonder- fully" done, was in order, one now looks more at the play as a whole and de- mands a satisfactory ensemble. This teamwork has been especially stressed in "Outward Bound." Individuals will be forgotten in the dramatic values of the whole.
