8 Q WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1921 NORTH SHORE PLAYERS START LITTLE THEATER Initial Performances of Newest North Shore Dramatic Club Scheduled for Tonight at Wilmette Club House Tonight at the Wilmette Wo- man's club, will be the official opening of the North Shore Players with three one-act plays, "The Maker of Dreams", "Sup- pressed Desires", and "Gran- goire" on the bill. The north shore will have reason to be proud of this group of young artists if the communities will support them anc encourage them to remain together. Several of the players to be seen this week are or have been professionals, and, with the exception of one or two, all of them intend to make the stage their work. It is,stherefore, with some little excitement that the opening night is awaited, for the first perform- ance of this Little Theater group is promised to be an artistic success. Of the cast-of 'the "Maker of Dreams" prohably Ralph R. Bellamy is the best known to the north shore. Mr. Bellamy is portraying the manu- facturer and, it is said, will give an artistic performance. It will be re- membered that he played the very bashful Englishman in "Miss Bob White" last fall. George Shipman and Miss Phillis Ogan play Pierrot and Pierrette, respectively. In the cast of "Grangoire" Harlan Ware, last season of the Wales Play- ers, one-time dramatic reader on Chautauqua, will portray the title role. Mr. Ware is well known to the north shore having appeared here many times in many different roles and his work is a promised treat. The cast includes also, Miss Evelyn Segs- worth whose presentation of a very difficult character in the New Trier production of "If I Were King" cre- ated a lot of favorable comment. Miss Segsworth is a young artist of power, whose characters are always a perfect little portrait. Montgomery Major, who needs no introduction but who, it is recalled, wrote the "Horn of Rollizan" which was recently pre- sented, and played King Louis in "If I Were King", will play again the character of Louis. Miss Marcia Lauer, James Gibson and David Levy complete the cast. The cast of "Supressed Desires" is one which, it is said, the North Shore Players defy any persons to equal in' any Little Theater in the country. Everett Fox, a Northwestern student and an actor of great promise and much experience, will play the hen- pecked husband. Miss Elizabeth Duffy, who is well known in and about Chicago as a dramatic reader, and whose work is always artistic is to give a fine characterization in the part of Mabel. Miss Mary Ricksen, formerly with William Rock and the National Stock company, plays the wife. This play is clever and the cast is unusually good. The Players, it.is said, are not wor- rying about support, for the north shore usually responds to artists who do their best. That the audience will get its money's worth there is no doubt for the talent of the north shore--and the very best of it--is combining to provide an enjoyable evening. Earl Fox is conductor of the or- chestra of about fifteen pieces which is preparing to entertain with the Players. Mr. Fox is exceptionally well fitted for the rather difficult task he has, for he, himself, is an excep- tionally good violinist who has, most probably, a future on the concert stage. The tickets for this first perform- ance are on sale now at the "drug stores of the north shore. POPULAR PLAY "HONEY" REPEATED HERE MAY 11 "Honey". a play by Mary Middel- ton, presented recently before a group of Winnetka women by mem- bers of the Community Drama club, and which met with exceptional ap- proval on that occasion, is to be re- peated Wednesday evening, May 11, before a public audience at Communi- ty House. The performance will be- gin at 8 o'clock. "Honey" is the child of a mount- 'ain family which has, come to live in a factory town. There are heart- throbs and happy situations which, it is said, are enjoyed by both young «n1 old playgoers, The cast includes Mrs. Taliaferro 0. Milton, Mrs. John Marshall, Mrs. Sherman Goble, Mrs. Delbert Poff, Mrs. Dwight Green, Mrs. Vernon Welch. Proceeds from the play will serve to complete a fund to be direct- ed to the support of an honor stu- dent at the University of Chicago, who is sponsored by the Woman's so- ciety of the Winnetka Congregation- al church. Mr. and Mrs. William M. Hoyt and Miss Josephine Landon, have re- turned from their winter home in Florida and are now occupying their residence at 550 Sheridan road, for the summer. Mrs. Harold Strotz (Eugenia Van- eveer) is to take part in the cabaret dance to be given by the Volunteer Aid of the Chicago Lighthouse, May 13, at the Opera club. -- ge Mrs. Frank Ogden Magie and fam- ily, formerly of Winnetka, have given up their house at 1235 Astor street, Chicago, and are at the Shore Crest hotel.
