The plot centres around the banishment of a young knight from King Arthur's Round table who has been given a year to find out "What women really want." The young actors are not new to the stage as many have been and are members of-the Bowmanville High School Drama Clubs and the arke Drama Club. Last year a similar play was presented in Newcastle with Ewert agin being the playwrite and director of-his young band of actors and ac-' tresses from the community. On that occasion the group layed to full houses with an extra performance having to be added to satisfy those wishing to attend.' There is a close com- munication between those on stage and the audience at the Newcastle Linîteci Church which accommodates a few over one hundred for each performance. The stage is al set for the flrst performance. Assisting in the production is Ray Noble who along with Charles Ewert wrote- the music and song for some tweive numbers. The band for the promotions is com- posed of Steve Kelly, Dave Ashton and Irwin Spec kert. Pearl Noble and Cathie Ewert designed the costumes for the play.
