The Children's Theatre will open
its series of plays on Nov. 6 and 7
with the presentation of "The Little
Princess" by Frances Hodgson Bur-
nett according to an announcement
by Margaret Guest, '37, chairman
of the committee.
Tryouts for the first play will be
held from 4 to 6 p.m. Monday and
Tuesday at the League. All Uni-
versity students interested in dra-
matics are welcome.
Costumes for "The Little Princess"
will be in late 18th century style of
hoops and pantaloons it was an-
nounced by Sarah Pierce, who will
direct the plays this year.
To Be Directed By Sarah Pierce
Miss Pierce has been seen in a
number of roles for both Play Pro-
duction and The Reperatory Players,
including that of the White Queen in
"Alice in Wonderland," Queen Eliza-
beth in "Mary of Scotland" and the
Old Maid in the play by the same
name.
She is at present an assistant in
the speech department and directed
several of the plays presented here
last summer after returning from a
year spent in New York. She is
affiliated with Delta Gamma sorority
and is a member of the class of '35.
The purpose of the Children's
Theatre is to present the favorites of
both children and adults. Fantastic
and brilliant scenery and costumes
carry out the idea of unreality with
which the plays are endowed.
With this purpose in mind the
producers included on their program
last year "Aladdin and His Wonder-~
ful Lamp," "Robinhood" or "The
Queen's Page" and "Alice in Wonder-
land."

Theatre are in cooperation with Play
Production and sponsored by the
Theatre and Arts Committee. The
next play of the series will be "Hans
Brinker," or the "Silver Skates" by
M. M. Dodge to be given Dec. 4 and
5, and the dates for the last play,
which has not yet been announced,
are March 4 and 5. Three perform-
ances are being planned for each
presentation, one mattinee on Fri-
day and two on Saturdays at 1:30
p.m. and 3:30 p.m.
