The Crescent College Theatricals are coming up, and the current tough times are quite evident. With damp weather, high fuel prices, scarcity of work, and general privation, people are struggling, particularly when they face sickness amidst these conditions. The Vincent Paul Society has been trying to help, but their funds are running low. To raise funds to alleviate this situation, the Jesuit Fathers have organized a theatrical performance by the Sacred Heart pupils on the 17th and 18th, with a special matinee on the 19th. Proceeds from the ticket sales will directly benefit those in need. People are encouraged to book tickets early as full houses are expected due to the College’s past patronage. A mixture of amateur and professional musicians will perform between the acts. Seat bookings can be made with Messrs Guy and Co., and they will maintain the regular popular pricing for the event.
