The setting of the play was an English boarding house in the late 1940's. The story, dramatic and serious, offered, in the character of Madge Don- nythorpe, unusual opportunities for student acting. A former student, emot- ionally unbalanced and warped, returns to her old teacher and attempts, first, to get revenge for past injuries, then to seek asylum from herself and a hostile, lonely world. It was well acted under the direction of Edward M. Holmes. Thirty-nine rehearsals went into the pre- paration of this play to insure its success. The cast was as follows: .Ieanne Douse Mrs. Beauclerc Connie Beal . . Nora Nancy Candage Miss Malleson Rita Linscott . .. Miss Figgis Elaine Farren .. . Mrs. Heysham Nancy Rowell .
