STRENUOUS LIFE FOR
CAST IN "BILLITED''
Members Of Dramatic Club Working
lndustriousIy for Comedy to Be
Produced Tuesday Evening

Produced Tuesday Evening
The rehearsal of play is an inter
estIng spectacle. A Banner reporter
attended the Wednesday evening re
hearsal of "Billeted" and came away
convinced that reporting, as com
pared with acting isn't such a hard
job after all.
An audience, comfortably seated
enjoying clever pay, well acted
can little realize T1le hard work and
attention to detail, that has been
necessary for its successful produc.
ton. The cast that is working at
present on "Billeted" already had
their lines well in hand on Wednes
day and the scenes were shaping
themselves satisfactorily.
The coaching that is being done by
Mr. and Mrs. Elliot is a fine exhibi-
tion of team work. II Mrs. Elliot is
wondering just how she is going to
manage to have the ingenue on pp-
posite side of the stage at the same
time, Mr. Elliot, who has been quiet.
ly watching from the side lines, steps
into the fray and says quietly, Wait
just one moment" He then pro-
ceeds to demonstrate just how an
ingenue can do anything,
In the next scene Mrs. Elliot may
be giving the handsome colonel a
few points as to how he should carry
on his Irritation with the charming
Mrs. Tarradine. The charming Mrs.
Tarradine is Miss Virginia O'Brien
and the reporter doesn't think it sur.
prising that the colonel wonders If
his hair is very gray and il 1t makes
much difference if man is lot
older than his wife.
These people are rehearsing five or
six hours every day During the re-
hearsal, every members of the cast
who has no part in the scene being
enacted, is either seated off in cor
ner with his or her nose buried in
their copy Of the play or else they are
pacing The floor, set look on their
faces, muttering their lines.
The scribe went home Wednesday
evening wondering why anybody
would ever take part in any play
"Billeted' is a war play, presenting
none of the horrors of war but deal
ing with the happenings in an Eng
lish home where officers, on leave,
are bllleted The play is full OF
amusing situations and clever con-
versatlons and everybody in the cast
seems admirably fitted to portray the
part to which they have been as
signed
Mr.. Elliot says that to learn the
lines and get a play into shape in
two weeks would he difficult task
for cast of all professional actors,
but both Mrs. Elliot and he are more
than satisfied with the work being
done by the "Billeted" cast.
The Banner reporter is ready to
guarantee that everyone who goes to
the Opera house next Tuesday even
ing is going to have good time.
