Repertory's Latest

One of the unusual features of Nelson Repertory Theatre's latest productions, "The Remarkable Mr Pennypacker", is the large number of children in the cast. When we called in to catch a rehearsal, we were quite astonished to see how well the youngsters had adapted themselves to the stage life, and what accomplished little actors some of them were. Here, we have reproduced a few pictures from the show, due to run from April 11 to 18. It's being produced by Jack Holmes.
