and Mac Ames. They portray characters from a variety of back- grounds forced by personal crises to seek sanctuary in a transition house. Their individual stories, ‘ although often harrowing, are all too familiar in this setting. The overtaxed resources of the house provide a constant challenge to both staff and residences. The range of personalities and social backgrounds leads to encounters that are sometimes abrasive and often humourous.

Curtain time for “Dreamgirls” will be 8:00 pm. Ticket prices are $5.50, $6.50 and $7.50.’ Re- servations may be made by calling the Confederation Centre Ticket- works. '
