"Yes, we‘ll be back next year. We‘ve got big plans. Highland Park is a wonderful town for a summer theater. Your beautiful athletic field makes an ideal setâ€" ting for the Tenthouse," likeable Herb Rogers, Tenthouse producer "Because you‘re such a good audience," she went on. "You gxâ€" pect a great deal from us . . . and we work hard to come up to your expectations. This is my second year with the, Tenthouse. And I want so much to be here for the third,too!" she said. Probably the best liked by his fellow players and by Tenthouse audiences is Barnard Hughes. "But after I was in Higrland Park just a few days, and after I‘d worked with Michael Ferrall, a really excellent director, and all the others, I knew 1 wanted to stay here. And so, I decided to. I had to buy up my contracts with the other summer theaters. But it‘s surely been worth it. I‘ve thoroughly erjoyed every minute in Highland Park," he concluded. told the PRESS. "You‘ve been a marvelous audiâ€" ence," Donald Curtis told a group of Highland Parkers chatting with the big, handsome star. "It‘s been great fun in Highland Park this summer. Don‘t know when I‘ve enjoyed a summer more. Yes, I want to come back next year," he Tall, statuesque and so friendly, Miss Walters told us she had enâ€" joyed playing béfore Highland Parkers more than any others. ‘‘Frankly, before I came to Highland Park, I didn‘t know if I‘d like it here. Because of that, 1 only signed for a five week tour, I also made contracts with two other summer theaters where I was going to appear later in the summer," Barnard Hughes told the PRESS.

"We‘ve had marvelous direction and a most receptive audience. That‘s why we‘ve enjoyed it here so much," she told us. Bright young star William Alâ€" ton is another who hopes to reâ€" turn.
