18 SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT 8th December 1967 Once again Mr Phillips and the choirs gave an excellent display of their musical ability, opening the evening's entertainment on a happy note. Again the time for preparation was very limited but this in no way detracted from the excellence of their performance, great credit is due to them all for achieving such fine results. The Junior School play, An Unfinished Tale, was an ably performed excerpt from Dickens' Oliver Twist. It would be difficult to find a more enthusiastic or convincing advertisement for any book. The play would be valued by any press agent, not to mention dramatist. When Mrs Marsh is the producer we always anticipate the best. La Lettre Chargee was one of the most ardently received French plays this school has presented. Superbly and, perhaps more important, naturally performed it was a great success and much favourable comment was heard from the audience at the interval. Finally, the English play, Refund , easily maintained the high standard set for the evening. This play closed the curtain on an enjoyable evening. Special thanks should go to Mr. Moodey for his invaluable and untiring help in the rehearsals and for his faultless organisation to which we- have become so accustomed at all school events.
