Read Narrative
‘J. M. Barrie’s comedy, “A Kiss for Cinderella,” was given by the students of “Chorley Wood College for Girls with little or no sight,” on Saturday and Monday last. Known to many older residents in West Herts as “Chorley Wood Cedars,” the college is now one of the many notable sections of the work of the National Institute for the Blind. The play was given in the large Assembly Room. Despite the handicap that many of the performers had the acting was wonderfully good. Where all worked hard it is somewhat unfair to mention names, but we may be pardoned for saying that Doris John, as “Cinderella,” captivated everyone by her acting. At the close on Saturday evening Miss Upcott, in a short speech, expressed the pleasure of all present in a delightful entertainment’. Buckinghamshire Examiner, Friday 20 December 1935.
