The dress rehearsal of the Pi Eta Society's play, Spontania, which went off last evening, was fair considering that the first act had been rehearsed only once with the orchestra and the second act not at all. The music was bright and catchy throughout and the dancing was very good, the libretto, however, was dull and pointless. The music and dancing bid fair to be the leading features at the regular performances. The costumes and scenery were very artistic. T. Stensland '98 and W. S. Parker '99 as Bungus, King of Spontania and Corcoran Van Brunt, Professor of Histeria at Harvard University, respectively, were very natural and showed that they were fitted for their parts. Parker kept up the spirit of the play throughout, showing marked ability to act a comical character. R. M. Mahoney 1900 as Sporticus, attendant to the King, over acted, and put Bungus, one of the principal characters, in the background. The chorus showed lack of training and were not sure of their parts besides, not getting into the spirit of the play.
Tonight is Graduates' night. Tomorrow night the first regular performance will be given in the club's theatre.
