Young perform- ers will have the opportunity to audition for Anne of Green Gables and Snow White: The Panto. Auditions will take place on Sunday, April 19th at the Huron Country Play- house. Advance registration is required. Aspiring young perform- ers, ages 9 to 15, are encouraged to attend the auditions. Dance, theatre, and singing experience are an asset and preferred. Those who plan to attend the auditions should sign up in advance and be prepared to learn the popular song "Come On Get Happy" as well as learn a short dance combination, led by our creative team. To accommodate the demands of these grand -scale productions, and to provide opportuni- ties for as many youth as possible, the chosen performers will be divided into teams and will perform in the children's chorus on rotating schedules with professional actors in the lead roles. Rehearsals for Anne of Green Gables are scheduled to begin late May and run through the beginning of June. Performances run from June 11th through June 27th. Rehearsals for Snow White: The Panto are scheduled to begin the middle of July and run until late July. Performances run from July 29th through August 29th.

Based on the famous Canadian novel, Anne of Green Gables tells the story of Anne Shirley, a spirited red-haired orphan who manages to charm her way into the hearts of her adop- tive family, Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert in Avon - lea, Prince Edward Island. Featuring memorable music and a beloved story, this popular Canadian musical is a family classic you won't want to miss. The Creative Team includes Director Max Reimer, Cho- reographer Lisa Ste- vens, and Music Direc- tor Steve Thomas. Anne of Green Gables will play at the Huron Country Play- house from June 11th through June 27th. Following in the foot- steps of last year's sold -out production of Peter Pan: The Panto, the classic fairy- tale of Snow White is reim- agined in the Panto tradi- tion at the Huron Country Playhouse II. Cast out by her jealous stepmother and tricked into eating a poi- soned apple, the beautiful Snow White must defeat the wicked queen and find her way back to the palace - with the help of seven new friends and a hand- some prince. Snow White: The Panto is filled with entertaining musical num- bers, slapstick comedy, outrageous costumes, and audience participation. The Creative Team includes Director David Con- noll, Choreographer Gino Berti, and Music Direc- tor Scott Christian. Snow White: The Panto will play at the Huron Country Play- house II from July 29th through August 29th. Tickets are $42 for adults and $25 for Youth under 20 years of age. Tickets for pre- view performances and groups of 20 or more are $34. HST is applicable to all ticket prices. Tickets may be purchased online at www.huroncountryplay- house.com, in person at the Drayton Entertainment Box Offices, or by calling (519) 238-6000 or toll free 1-855-DRAYTON (372-9866). Thompson says cap and trade system will amount to more problems Postmedia Network Ontario Liberal cap -and - trade system would amount to nothing more than the government putting its giant hand even deeper into tax- payers' pockets, Progressive Conservative MPP Lisa Thompson says. "They are looking at an initiative that's going to be prove to be taxing on Ontar- ians," Thompson warned Monday. "We're going to see the price of everything from groceries to fuel to heat increasing because of a price on carbon that the Liberals are bringing in only to try and generate revenue to cover their deficit." The Ministry of Environ- ment would not comment on a news report that a cap - and -trade system would be announced shortly but did refer to a letter signed by business leaders in support of such a plan. Environment Minister Glen Murray, who's respon- sible for his government's response to climate change, announced in February that he was launching province - wide consultations on a car- bon -pricing plan that would encourage businesses to lower their greenhouse gas emissions. There is no single issue that presents a greater threat to humanity and to our future and at the same time, there is no single issue that offers such promise for job growth, for reinvestment and for a stronger economy," Murray said at the time. The Ontario government has hardly had time to absorb the results of those consultations and yet appears poised to usher in a cap -and -trade system, or some other carbon pricing, Thompson said. "I am concerned that they're using everybody's sincere interest in doing something positive for the environment," she said. "It's so frustrating because I think they've duped the public. There's no way they have had a chance to go through all of the consultation notes." • 1 33 Maul St., AMY Seaforth MccLREAL Sales Rep EIEIDIME 519.600.1577 519-525-3988 UM 1 .2%2. 41 KYLA MAUREEN Dir519.272.5413 ect 5 9 5 3 COOK WILDFONG THE SIGN THAT SAYS SOLD Broker Sales Rep. ®- 519-520-9557 519-525-9954 / .'
