6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1923 "13TH CHAIR" DRAMA COMING North Shore Players to Give Production of Great Mys- tery Play This Season POLICY IS ANNOUNCED All Players Performances to Aid Charity This week brings from the North Shore Players an announcement as to what their plans will be for the season, 1923-24. They were made known this week by Sidney M. Speig- el, Jr., president of the Players. Mr. Spiegel outlined the matter as fol- lows: "Last season we presented several productions, among which were: "Peg O' My Heart" and "The 'Three Live Ghosts." "These plays were entirely different and each showed a different phase of the drama. "Peg O' My Heart" was a true American play, in spite of the fact that the scenes were layed in England. It was the kind of a com- edy that gets to an American au- dience's heart. While "Three Live Ghosts" was an imported comedy. In other words an Englishman's side of the story. Both were comedies of the first rank, and we believe that each found its place into the hearts of our audiences. "It has always been the North Shore Player's intention to give the people of the north shore what they wanted. We planned our campaign last year with this thought in mind, and, again, this season, we are still keeping this paramount in our thoughts. : Would Please Audience "No matter what we do, we are go- ing to please our audiences. We are going to give them what we believe they want. If it is comedy they want, they are going to have it, even though we may have to revert to "slap stick." If it is drama they desire, they are going to get that. In other words, we are going to give the public what they want. Decides On Mystery "After a good deal of study in try- ing to find out what was wanted, I believe we have at last found the thing that north shore audiences de- sire. It is neither drama nor comedy, but a mixture of both, together with an uncertain thing added to it which is known as mystery. In other words, in the new play which we have chosen we are going to have comedy, drama and thrills galore. We are going to make them laugh, and we may make them cry, and we are sure we are go- ing to make their 'hair stand on end.' The play we have chosen for this pur- pose is "The Thirteenth Chair," by Baynerd Weiller, author of "Within The Law." "The Thirteenth Chair" has proven to be the most popular play ever written by Mr. Weiller.
