TROPHIES! The Burnley Garrick Club carried off two of the
awards at the end of ClitheroeV fourth drama festival on Saturday. With their production of “You Can’t Take it with You”, they won not only the magnificent trophy
for the outright winner, but also a second silver trophy awarded at the adjudicator’s discretion.
Mr. Ronald Whetton,
the adjudicator, said that for the special award he had been watching out for two things: setting, and gradation of pace in the production.
He had found these
combined in the Burnley play. He commented:
“This was a superb piece of theatre. They gave us real professional theatre
