Register Tomorrow For Players’ Free Workshop At Barn Theatre Tomorrow night is “Registration Night” at The Barn Theatre, 319 Duval Street! Registration starts at 8:30 for the Key West Play- ers Summer Workshop. No money is involved*— The Players just want to see lots of people interested in learning more about the theatre at the Barn tonight. The entire program is worked out on the theory of “have fun learning.” There will be a fun and refreshment period during each lecture designed for the entertainment and amusement of the en- rollees. For example, at tomorrow night’s meeting, members will ap- pear in scenes from various past productions, playing the parts they “took” in the play — and in addi- tion, refreshments will be served. The Players have planned a ser- ies of eleven exemplified lectures for beginners in Little Theatre work, given by experienced mem- brs of the group. The lectures will be comparable to a university series and are open to non-members as well as mem- bers of The Players. The purpose of the lectures is to stimulate in- terest“In all phases of play pro- duction; to give experience to pros- pective members who want to learn about little theatre, and to actively participate in Players’ future productions — back stage as well as on stage. Mickey Renna, president of The Key West Players, is very explicit, stating, ‘““You don’t have to be a member, or even became a mem- ‘ber, to take part in the workshop. However, membership in The Players is very nominal and we hope that most of the persons who attend the program will want to become members. We feel that if anyone is interested enough to take part in the workshop, they will enjoy putting what they have learned ‘into practice during the next season, “The only requirement for par- ticipation in the workshop is re- gistration. Obviously, if there is an insufficient number of enrollees, the series will be discontinued im- mediately. It would be unfair to expect the lecturers to “play to an empty house” when they are giv- ing their time and effort.” The Players are hoping that a goodly number of Key Westers, and service personnel will turn out at The Barn tomorrow night. The lectures will start at 8:30 every Tuesday night, provided the res- ponse is satisfactory tomorrow. The Barn Theatre is in the rear of the Woman’s Club building, 319 Duval Street, or in back of the Key West Library, or next door to the Elks Club, or across the street from the “oldest house” — just in case you’re new in town. and haven’t been to one of the top- notch plays produced by the Play- ers — one of the outstanding little theatre groups in the country!
