“DEAR OCTOPUS”
REPERTORY SOCIETY’S PRODUCTION Last evening, at the second performance of the Repertory Society’s current production, “Dear Octopus,” another enthusiastic audience showed appreciation of the high standard of ability reached by repertory players. Dodie Smith’s celebrated light comedy is an intimate and faithful portrayal of home life as the average family lives it. The emphasis is on the humorous aspects of human relationships and those incidents inseparable from family life. “Dear Octopus” will continue for a further three nights at the Radiant HaJI. The proceeds of Monday evening’s performance are to be given to the u Sick, Wounded, and Distress Fund. The box plan for Monday will open at the D.I.C. this morning. Reserves for to-night and to-morrow are also at the D.I.C. '
