Excellent acting ability,
combined with good staging
and a lively plot, made the
opening performance Tuesday
night of “Night Must Fall’' a
tremendous hit The enthusi¬
astic audience brought the cast
back for five curtain calls and
then shouted for the director.
Tonight and tomorrow
night, the curtain comes down
for the last time on the action-
packed dramatic production of
“Night Must Fall."
In the two remaining pres¬
entations the audiences wi 1 1
«ее
Charles Flurry, a murderer
characterized aa "Dan,” portray
his homicidal instiritta, hie vary¬
ing personality, and occasional
humorous remarks and actions.
Co-starring with Flurry are Emily
Evans, playing the part of Mrs.
Bramson and Billye Walker, acting
as Olivia Grayne.
Very Convincing
The ability of Dan, as portrayed
in the first act, to convince Mrs.
Bramson of his integrity and good
intentions is a feat he accomplishes
that surprises the entire household,
since other members are unable to
gain such attentions. Earlier in the
act he ventures to lay a wager
with Olivia that he will be success¬
ful in this attempt
In past performances the audi¬
ences have been especially amused
with the humorous acting of Floyd
Thompson enacting the role of
Hurbert Lourie, Genie Rae Slocum
playing the part of Mrs. Terence,
Martha Martin as Dora Parkoe, and
Fal Curenton portraying Nurse
Libby. Inspector Belsize drama¬
tized by Kenneth Brown represents
the serious "No monkey business”
type. ,
