DRESS REHEARSAL

An account of life in a British boarding school which runs a counterpoint of comedy to the dislocation of Jocelyn, daughter of a theatrical couple who is looked down on by the headmistress for her unfortunate background. Lending drama is the expulsion of an older girl for having a rendezvous with a young man, holidays in Germany and Italy, the final release of Jocelyn and her sister to cosmopolitan life. There is ingenuous originality and gaiety in the impressions.
