Houses Begin Tryouts For Xmas Theatricals

Thesplans from two Houses have started to rehearse their annual Christmas plays, and the other Houses will begin in a few days. Dunster has already held first sessions for Plautus' "Comedy of Assets," and Lowell for George Farquhar's "Love and a Bottle."

Some of the other Houses have not yet cast their productions, but Eliot plans to present Ben Jonson's "Bartholomew Fair" on December 17, Kirkland will stage John Dryden's "Amphitryon" and Winthrop is considering William Congreve's "Love for Love."

The productions will be staged during the first three weeks of December. Some of the shows have already been assigned tentative dates in that period.
