75 STUDENTS AT DRAMA SCHOOL
10 Days’ Training At Massey College
(New Zealand Press Association) PALMERSTON NTH., Jan 12. The New Zealand Drama Council’s eleventh annual residential theatre school opened at Massey College, Palmerston North, this evening, when 75 students, representing amateur theatre groups from Aucklnd to Dunedin, assembled for a comprehensive 10 days of training in acting, production, stage design, scene painting, playwriting and allied subjects.
As in previous years, the women students outnumber the men, but this year the numbers are rather more even than in previous years, with 32 men to 43 women.
The tutors at the school include Richard and Edith Campion and Raymond Boyce, all formerly with the New Zealand Players’ Company, Alan de Malmanche, of Christchurch, and Nola Miller and Gisa Taglich, of Wellington.
