Kosmet Klub
holds spring
show tryouts
Play has parts for men,
women in both acting
and singing roles
Tryouts Monday and Tuesday
nights in Temple auditorium bring
both men and women together in
the first dual cast spring Kosmet
Klub show in more than 15 years.
And for the first time according
to Leo Cooksley, president of the
Klub, finesse, dramatic appeal
and zip will replace "slapstick"
crude humor and "accent on awk
wardness," so characteristic of
Kosmet productions in the past.
Success along these lines, Cooks
ley points out, will give this uni
versity and the authors of the
show a good claim to national
recognition, ASCAP prize money
and scholarship awards.
But more important than this,
the president believes that female
singing and dancing talent has, in
the past, had no opportunity for
display, and that a combination
of this untapped talent, coupled
with a good play and a strong
singing male cast, would set a
record in Kosmet Klub show pop
ularity.
Play adaptable to students.
