the scene, rocketing from his last scandal in Hollywood, is "Tony Cavendish" dynamically enacted by Oliver Cliff, versatile artist who starred in "Petticoat Fever," last week's presentation by Holiday Stage. He stirs the play's tempo to a tingling pitch.
Part of the producer-director and old family friend, appearing in the "back stage" home scenes, is portrayed with depth by Robert Rockwell.
"Gwen," Julie's coming-young-gactress-daughter, is convincing. The proverbial family parasites are "Herbert" and a vitriolic "Kitty" played by Fred Berest and June Schafer.
Ruth Phelps, drama instructor of Anaheim Union high school, is the maid, "Della" who attempts to keep the household schedule functioning despite all difficulties. Bill Pullen is a "plot thickener"
as "Gilbert Marshall," Julie's old love interest returned from South American mines with marital plans. Phil Moore appears a little heavy in the role of "Perry," man in the life of Gwen.
Throbbing theme of the Ferber-Kaufman play is "the show must go on." Lure of the theater is its life blood.
Supporting cast members include Lee Delaney, Dick Dalley, Scott Darnell, Jimmy Davis and Cathy Morris.
Curtains are at 8:30 o'clock each week night except Sunday. Saturday matinees begin at 2:30 o'clock.
