Scope and Content

This document is a copy preserved by The Westmount Thespians executive committee to document a decision taken by the troupe in 1928. The original letter, dated December 28, was sent to the members by Hugh L. Trimingham to inform them that the production of the play The Cinderella Man was cancelled. The letter explains that because many people in the cast, composed primarily of students, fell ill during the fall, the production was too far behind to be ready for the scheduled January 25, 1929, performance. The author closes the letter saying that, despite this unfortunate interruption, the club is confident that the 1929-1930 season will be a success.
