The Spike or Victoria University College Review 1945

Dramatic Club

Dramatic Club

The V.U.C. Drama Club, after being on the up and up for the past two years, has followed in the wake of other clubs and gone way down. After the full and successful year of 1944, the committee became really ambitious and planned for a dramatic revival, with two major productions and weekly readings. But the only men available were the men on the committee, and as they began to be called up, the ambitions crumbled and a revue took the place of all the noble schemes.

However, in the hope that peace will lessen the man shortage, the committee has planned for a production for the first week of 1946, and has applied for alternate Friday nights, believing this to be the best night for audiences. The production for next year must be cast before the end of .the third term, as rehearsals are to take place during the vacation. If you are interested, hand your name in to the secretary. Here is you opportunity to be in a play without interfering with swot. So leave a note in the rack of the Women's Common Room—if you don't approach us, we won't feel distinctly that your name among the thousand odd belongs to genius.

The programme during the year began promisingly with an evening of mixed sketches. This was followed by a one-act evening, which can only be excused with the knowledge that it was. a testing ground for producers. Two readings—one successful, the other not—and the forthcoming revue, complete the sad picture.

With the help of those interested we can remedy this next year. How about it?
