Extract from Dec 1944 Impala - Dramatic Society, reports on School Plays:
"The Drummer of Shawm" was also well acted. ………. Templer made an excellent Octavia; he was a really convincing woman, and was particularly effective in the long speech at the beginning, in which he very successfully built up the supernatural atmosphere that forms the-background to the play.
