Fashion,
Music, Song &
Dance
Jayne Miltenburg
One hundred years of fash-
ion, music, song and dance is
how Marion Kernighan
describes her "passion for
fashion". HAWK theatre is
pleased to present one of the
six shows she is putting on this
year at the Lucknow United
Church on October 4. Two
shows, at 1:30 pm or 7:30 pm
will bring local models and
Marion's own group of volun-
teers to entertain with a musi-
cal comedy show, done by
authentic clothing through
the ages including 26 musical
numbers.
Marion's hobby of making
porcelain dolls and outfitting
them in replica costumes,
meant she had to source
antique or vintage clothing to
make their dresses and outfits.
When she realized these vin-
tage clothing were too nice to
cut up for doll clothing, she
started collecting them
instead. When her collection
grew she decided to put on
fashion shows, thinking other
people would enjoy seeing the
clothing modelled.
Her extensive collection
includes up to 500 pieces,
starting from the 1860's up to
and including the 1970's. She
has researched extensively
fashion design for each dec-
ade and knows exactly what
hat, earrings, necklace, gloves,
purses, shoes or boots should
match the dress or suit.
Now this isn't just a show
for the ladies. Men get in on
the act too. Remember those
polyester leisure suits? Well
some lucky gentlemen might
just be modelling one! Bowler
hats, saddle shoes, bloomers,
bustles, poodle skirts, flapper
dresses....These are just some
of the fashion trends that
might be shown.
Each one of Marion's shows
are totally different and
unique! Depending on the
venue, and the variety of mod-
els available, she can source
from her extensive collection.
She was so happy that one of
the models for the Lucknow
show is slim. "They had such
tiny waists back then", that
she is able to use some of the
vintage clothing she hasn't
had anyone model for a long
time.
Some of the highlights for
the Lucknow show include
four gentlemen cloggers; the
"Charleston dance"; two girls
singing "I Don't Want to Play
in Your Yard',a song from the
1880's; "Puttin' on the Ritz";
an accapella trio from Petrolia
called Sisters of Choice doing
"Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy";
Jordan Henry of Goderich,
singing "Danny Boy'; "Mon-
tego Bay" by Steve Carapite.
Musical accompaniment on
piano will be by Angus
Sinclair.
