eg a SIREN id aaa EE / WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1922 SOCIADACTIVITIES 'Mixed Marriage' Is Theatre Guild's Latest Production HE North Shore Theatre Guild is advising . those who are planning to attend the Winnet- ka performances of 'Mixed Marriage" on April 27 and -28, to secure their tickets at the Win- netka Pharmacy, after April 20. If members of the Guild have any dif- ficulty about receiving their tickets, they are advised to investigate immediately of Mr. Emory Cobb An- drews, Mr. Stuart Bailey or Mrs. Fred- erick Dickinson. With a mailing list of more than a thousand, mistakes may occur, which will be gladly rectified if possible. The schedule for the week begin- ning April 25, is as follows: Tuesday, April 25, Lake Forest; Wednesday, April 26, Evanston; Thursday and Friday, April 27 and 28, Winnetka; Saturday, April 29, Kenilworth. - "Mixed Marriage" is one of the great plays, and the production prom- ises to be an adequate ome. Mr. Eckhart of Kenilworth, plays Mr. --O-- Rainey; Mr. Whitely, who is presi- dent of the Evanston Drama club, plays Mrs. Rainey. The lovely part of Nora is most satisfactorily inter- preted by Mrs. Preston Boyden of Winnetka. Mr. Ogden Cook of Ken- ilworth plays Higbie, and George Mar- tin of Wilmette, Tom. The part of patriotic Michael O'Hara is given to Mr. Joseph Gibson of Evanston. The play is not all comedy, not all tragedy, but it is life, narrow, bigoted, loving, generous--Ilife. Oo An enthusiastic audience greeted the Community Drama Club Players on Wednesday evening in their offering of the rollicking comedy, "A Single Man." The afternoon tea scene in Act Two was particularly effective. Much cred- it is due Mrs. Fred Simpson and Mr. Ralph Varney for the excellent setting, particularly so in view of the hamper- ed facilities which the Community House stage affords. The players are to be highly commended for the ex- cellent presentation of their first real comedy ever attempted. Previous to this time, the players have made their appearance in plays of a different type, and as everybody knows, it is a most -difficult thing to put over a comedy, 0 that it really is a comedy. It takes real talent, and just this sort of work was displayed in "The Single Man." Following is the cast of characters: Robin Worthington, Dr. Davies Lazear Henry Worthington Re Mr. Charles Eastman Dickie Cottrell. .Mr. English Walling Lady Cottrell...Mrs. Burton Atwood Maggie Cottrell..Mrs. John Marshall Miss Heseltine..... Mrs. Harry Craig Isabella Worthington Mrs. Merritt Lum The Housekeeper Mrs. Percival Hunter Music lovers are reserving next Thursday afternoon, April 27, in order that they may attend the last of the series of musicales to be presented by the Music Committee of the Winnetka Woman's club, this year. This program will be in charge of Mrs. Roland D. Whitman, and the so- loists for the afternoon, Miss Cath- erine Wade Smith, violinist, Mrs. Guy Stuart Bailey, vocalist, and Miss Com- fort Hinderlie, pianist, are certain to present a most delightful program. Mrs. Bailey needs no introduction at all in our little musical world, as she is a resident of the village and also a member of the club. Mrs. Bailey has appeared on numerous programs all along the shore. Miss Smith, the violinist, was a so- loist with the Civie Orchestra last winter and plays delightfully, and Miss Hinderlie, a student of Howard Wells, was formerly a member of the cele- brated St. Olaf Choir, and has devoted some time to composition. The club season closed on Thursday, and outside of this one musicale, ac- tivities in all other departments have been discontinued until next fall. ---- The MacDowell Musical Club was entertained at the home of Mrs. Guy S. Bailey, on Ash street on Monday afternoon, April 10. "Modern Scandi- navian Music" was the subject of the day and Miss Frances Von Hofsten, a visiting guest, read a very delightful paper on personal experiences and cus- toms in Sweden. Mrs. Burton Atwood gave an interesting talk and the fol- lowing numbers were given by the members of the club, kindly assisted by Mrs. Everett Harris, Mrs. Simpson and Mr. Harvey Clemens: Eroticon, No. 1--Emil Sjorgren.
