 Dallas High School will present the comic review ``A Thurber Carnival,'' a
selection of humorous sketches from James Thurber's works, at 8 p.m. Nov. 19
and 20 in the high school auditorium. Tickets are $3 at the door. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Often described as ``a revue for those with no musical talent,'' the
sketches include ``The Night the Bed Fell,'' ``Gentlemen Shoppers,'' ``The
Secret Life of Walter Mitty'' and the opening and closing ``Word Dances,''
containing many one-liners. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
 The play is directed by Donald Hopkins, now in his 35th season of
directing plays at Dallas, assisted by Audrey Ide. Stage manager is Chris
Riley, assisted by Laura Vodzak. Senior cast members are Abby Ahmad, Tina
Buraiewicz, Joseph Goryl, Ashleigh Ide, Jeff Levinson and Ethan Lewis. The
instrumental ensemble includes pianist Maria Stevens, with Michael Miller and
Lee Griffin on percussion and bass. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
