The Workshop
This evening of one-act plays included the winner of the 2nd Playwriting Competition in 1938, "Pipistrelle of Aquitaine" written by former Workshop member Munro MacLennan. The cast of "Brothers in Arms" was made up of students from the High School of Commerce.
The evening was adjudicated by Rev. Father Geoffrey Nevil Dowsett (whose passion play "The Betrayal" had been produced in New York), and included a talk on the relationship of dance to drama through the ages given by Helen Priest, dancing instructor for the RA (Recreation Association) and Elmwood School.
