In it he has brought the OId Testament story of Job forward to mod-,. ern times and by bis mastery of dialogue, converted it to a delightful comedy.

Not for long though. God' decîdes to test bis love for Him and following the appearance of a mysterious, curious and somewhat sinister visitorjoe's material world, comes crashing around bim. The reactions of Joe and lis familv to these calamitiesform the basis of this most enjoy- able entertainmient. The play prom-ises to have the polish associated with Jimi Cheyne's direction. Claude Vipond plays Joe with in- tegrity, and convictione with Mary Volîmer a*s bis bejewelled and bedazed wife, Rose.
