Entertainment Leisure&Local theatres look for actors for gala event
Huron Women’s Shelter, the Blyth
Festival and the Goderich Little
Theatre have joined forces to
produce and present The
Clockmaker by Stephen Massicotte.
Celebrating 25 years of service to
women in Huron County, Huron
Women’s Shelter will host a gala
event to coincide with The
Clockmaker’s opening on stage at
Blyth Memorial Hall on October 14.
Proceeds from the gala will support
the Huron Women’s Shelter.
Following the gala opening in Blyth,
The Clockmaker will run for two
weeks as part of the Goderich Little
Theatre’s 2011/12 season, at the
Livery Theatre in Goderich. Student
performances for secondary schools
will be scheduled. Tickets will go on
sale June 1.
The Clockmaker will be directed
by Eric Coates, Artistic Director of
the Blyth Festival. This non-paying,
community theatre production
requires a cast of three adult males
and one adult female. Interested
non-professional actors should
submit a letter of interest to: Janine
Plummer, Outreach Co-ordinator,
Blyth Festival, PO Box 10, Blyth,
ON N0M 1H0 or e-mail:
outreach@blythfestival.com
Auditions will be held at the Blyth
Festival on Wednesday, June 1 from
6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Additional audition
time will be added if needed.
Interested community theatre actors
may apply for an audition time by
contacting Janine Plummer,
Outreach and Education Co-
ordinator at the Blyth Festival:
outreach@blythfestival.com

outlining theatre experience.
Auditions will be held at the Blyth
Festival during the week of May 16.
Only those who are selected for an
audition will be contacted and
provided with audition material from
the text of the play.
In The Clockmaker, a humble
clockmaker is smitten by a married
woman who brings a shattered
cuckoo clock into his shop. As he
unravels the mystery of how the
clock came to be destroyed, their
relationship deepens and he vows to
make her the most splendid clock the
world has ever seen.
An extraordinary race against time
to solve a mysterious puzzle
ensues keeping the audience
guessing – and on the edge of their
seats.
The Clockmaker is equal parts
love story and meta-physical murder
mystery. Cast requirements are, one
female (30-40) and three males (30-
50).
Blyth Festival Singers host annual cabaret night
The Blyth Festival Singers will be hosting a little fling as they present their ever-popular annual cabaret
concert and dinner on Saturday, May
28 at the Stanley Recreation
Complex in Varna.
This “Scottish Fling” will be a
celebration of all things Scottish and
includes a dinner, performance and
silent auction. The singers will
perform well-loved Scottish
traditional tunes throughout the
evening. Their melodies will be
punctuated by the lively music of the
Kincardine Fiddle Orchestra and
with further guest performances by
several members of the Celtic Blue
Highlanders Competition Band. Don
Martin, solo piper, of the Brussels
Pipe Band will also join the lineup
for this show. The celebration
coincides with the Knox
Presbyterian Church’s Kirkin’ o’ the
Tartan on May 29.
So if you are Scottish or just want
to be, don your kilt and sporran, or a
favourite plaid item and join in the
festivities.

adults.
