Drama groups present plays during autumn During the fall season, talented Taylor students display dramatic ability. Oscar Wilde ' s The Impor- tance of Being Earnest opened the season by portraying comedy and confusion. Then came a drama- tization of Sir Thomas More ' s struggle in A Man for all Seasons. One-act plays allow student direc- tors to use their ability. The first in the series, Fox in a Fix, was di- rected by Diane Oman. Sue Van Poucker chose to direct A Visitor from Forest Hills. Two other plays were also presented under the direc- tions of Lauretta Buhler and Jim Clark. Problems of a wedding day introduce the conflict in the comedy, A Visitor From Forest Hills. Taylor student actors present the one act play, Fox in a Fi.x, a fairy tale of Chinese origin. Conviction and compromise are dealt with in A Man for All Seasons. ' The Importance of Being Earnest was presented by the Reader ' s Theater. 26
