Title
Curtain Guild, 1936
Description
(top left) An actor hands a letter to another actor seated at a desk. The actors are looking at each other. Caption from Loyolan: The minister sweeps up a collection in “New Brooms” - as the little lady gives until it hurts for the foreign missions…
(top right) An actor stands behind a seated couple on a bench, looking down doubtfully on them. The couple are engaged in conversation. Caption from Loyolan: ‘Over Somebody Else’s Shoulder’ - Burns waxes romantic as ‘Papa’ Sutfin ogles doubtfully.
(bottom) An actor in a trench coat with one hand on their neck and the other in their pocket looks at another actor in a patterned blouse and skirt. Three other actors look at the pair. Caption from Loyolan: The tables are turned; Tom tells Rosie where to get off after a bad night…
The Curtain Guild (1935-1971) was a student organization that worked with the Department of Speech and Drama in putting up plays. The Guild aimed to make students "theatre-conscious" as well as to train Catholic students for active theatrical work.
*This collage was assembled from existing images in pages 240 and 241 of the 1936 Loyolan Yearbook.
