All Quality

The combined production by actors and actresses from the Edmund Campion and St. Mary's Colleges, respectively, of J. M. Barrie's "Quality Street" represents hours of practice and hours of work--practice for the players and work for the makers of the costumes. This play, set at the time of the Battle of Waterloo, calls for rich costuming and the costumes for this production are correct to the last detail. Producer is Kevin Cull and the play will run in the Boys' High assembly hall on July 21, 22, 23.

Highlight of the play is the ballroom scene which shows off the magnificent costumes.

Taking the parts of children in school are, from left, Bernard O'Donoghue, Brendan Marriott, Anthony Dudson, Brendan Shivnan, John Cull, Judith Lee, Jennifer McDougall, Louise Hollamby, Anna Goodsir and Patricia Crone.
