The Diary Of Anne Frank The second play produced this year differed greatly from the mood of the first. The Diary of Anne Frank, while it has its moments of gaiety is more of a study of the human organisms emotions than anything else. The story of a young girl's life as it is affected by the Second World War is a touching yet chilling tale. Confined for most of the duration in a small attic, the two families and IVlr. Dussel, played by Chris Beveridge, are constantly trying to bring a little peace into their portion of the world which knows no peace. Anne Frank CSue Swaggerty? and Peter ClVlattVVheIenD are constantly at each others throats, yet they have developed a great affection for each other by the final suspensful scene where the SS officers take them away.

This year's Drama Department schedule kicked off with an English comedy called 'The Curious Savage', the story of a family oi ambitious adults trying to wrest inheritance money from their slightly eccentric mother. lt was a good way to start out the year as it met with approval by almost all who saw the play. Nancy Beveridge did an excellent job as lVlrs. Savage in her only acting role during her four years at lVlarist. Praise also went to Pat Swaggerty in his part as Judge Savage for the repeated line G-g-g-god knows. Cast Xi Crew Director . . . Technical Director .. Asst. Director Florence . . . Hannibal . . .
