Charlie ' s Aunt, by Brandon Thomas, was presented by the Blackfriars and the Department of Communications February 20-23 in the Union Ballroom. The Blackfriars is a student drama society. Under the direction of Dominic Cunetto, pro- fessor of Communications, the student-produced farce received several standing ovations. Wayne Durst served as technical advisor. The Department ot Music under the direction of Dr. Guy Hargrove, associate professor of music, pre- sented The Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sulli- van. The cast of 22 actors and actresses presented the musical April 10-12 in Lee Hall. The entire comedy centered around a group of zany pirates who fell in love with a bunch of orphans. The play, set back in the 1880 ' s, had a happy ending with everyone falling in love and the pirates really being noblemen.
