The narration, which introduced each mimed scene, music, sound and LaeCansinee oaWwae) ne beautifully coordinated and the whole piece was way of most moving. The script, moreover, was developed by the students with their teacher Ray Holt, who is also a member of Huronia Players. This was done as an integral part of rehearsals and the result demonstrates just how much creative talent exists among our young people. Suppressed Desires, by Susan Glaspell, was directed by Larry Piitz. In complete contrast to the first play, this was a comedy, a spoof on Freudian --_ psychoana- lysis, although somewhat dated in this age of encounter groups, Essalen and primal screams. It concerns Stephen (Jon Kee) a young architect, his wife Henrietta (Monica Kee), a clubwoman with an obsessive interest in psychoanalysis, who does not hesitate to diagnose and prescribe for her family and friends, and her sister Mabel (Lindsey Martin) who is' convinced by Henrietta that she (Mabel) is sub- consciously in love with Stephen. There is a great deal of symbolic play with names (Step Hen Stephen, etc.) until Stephen and Mabel take Henrietta interpre- tations rather too much fo heart. They finally resolve the problem with deal to go back to normal if Henrietta gives up dabbling in psychology. As in marly comedies, the quiet, unspectacular : character gets most: of the laugh lines and Jon Kee read them with a nicely restrained sar- donic delivery. To bring off the comedy, of course, Henrietta and Mabel must sustain a high degree of intensity for contrast and this Monica Kee and Lidsey Martin succeeded in doing, as evidenced by the obvious enjoyment of the audience. The last play was the well-known vignette from the "trouble" in Ireland, "'The Rising Of The Moon', by Lady Gregory. This was directed by Barry Daley who also did a minor speaking role. The play concerns the conflict between duty on the one hand and patriotism and the lure of a_ large reward on the other as experienced by the Sergeant, played by Ted Drennan. The Sergeant is a member of the constabulary whose duty it is to arrest an escaped prisoner, a rebel, "The - Man", played by Stephen Hartnell. The play opens on a wharf where the Sergeant and his two assistants (Barry Daley and Peter Conrad) post a notice offering a reward of a hundred pounds for the escapee. The assistants having left, the Sergeant is pat- olling the wharf when a man. The action of the play centres around the rebel's efforts to enlist the policeman's sym- pathy as a fellow Irish- ian and the struggle in 'he officer's conscience hetween that very real sympathy and his duty, spiced by the thought of the reward. Aside from the problem of speaking the lines in Irish dialect, which all concerned did most convicingly, the play required a genuine feel for the plight of the Irish people as symbolized by the Sergeant's mental turmoil. Ted Drennan realized this agony of decision and convinced the audience, who were gripped by the drama of it. As well, both actors were aware of the streak of humour that runs: sin (} the Irish character in even the worst of times. Stephen Hartnell demonstrated a very fine singing voice in his rendition of a couple of republican ballads.
