OFFER SERIOUS DRAMA "Passing of Third Floor Back" to Be Presented by New Trier Players This Saturday ---- By H. E. D. : "The Passing of the Third Back", the second play to be given by the Play- ers of New Trier, will be presented at the New Trier auditorium, Satur- day, February 20, at 8 o'clock, with the following cast: A satyr, Carl Keith; a coward Whitfield Cook; a bully, Warrens Seibold; a shrew, Virginia Hannah; a hussy, Eunice Stoddard; a rogue, David Rumsey; a cad, Stephen Har- wood; a cat, Helen Brown; a snob, Emilie Durham; a slut, Constance VonWeller; a cheat, Virginia Haight; a passer-by, the "third floor back", Robert Kenyon. It is encouraging to know that these characters do not remain the same type throughout the play, although the roles are played by the same people. The story takes place in a London board- ing house, the landlady of which is charactized as "a cheat". Having to grind out her existence by keeping roomers and boarders of the non-paying, bluffing sort, has not tended to sweeten her disposition. She faces everyone with suspicion and con- sequently, is herself treated in like manner. Her little maid is a girl from the "industrial school" and is a general little slavey around the house. Re- ceiving few good things into her life, and expecting even less--she neverthe- less reveals a desire to be finer than the sort of life she leads will allow her to be. Into this household of distrust- ing, catty, grasping natures, comes one who has a personality so powerful, so quiet and withal so forceful, that just by his presence among them, he suc- ceeds in absolutely changing their characters. Kindness, courtesy, the will to see only what is good and admir- able in all mankind, works miracles in each and everyone of them. The harassed landlady as well as her "guests," realizes the golden rule. From unhappy enemies, they become a family of kindly, helpful friends. First Serious Drama The sermon in this drama is very evident: charity and love begets only kindness. This is the first serious play of the year at New Trier. It speaks well for the Players that they are able to give it. However, since the Players represent the most experienced mem- bers of the Dramatic club, in fact. form a separate unit which is supposed to be capable of better productions than the rest of the club, it is certain that the play will be a fine success. Miss Ela Stanwood has been spend- ing several weeks coaching the play with the result that during this last week, only the last-hour polishing has been necessary.
