If Tuesday evening’s
performance of the “Odd
Couple” at the Huron
Country Playhouse is any
indication of the quality of
summer stock that’s to be
provided in this area, theatre
goers are in for a banner
year,
It was a sold out crowd of
500 that was thoroughly
enthralled by the hijinks of
Felix and Oscar in the best
known of Neil Simon’s
numerous plays.
The tandem of Jack Duffy
as Felix and Les Carlson as
Oscar lived up to their ad
vance billing with Carlson
overacting superbly as the
slovenlv sportswriter.

Duffy had somewhat of a
more difficult time with
Felix’s complicated
character, but once the
opening night jitters were
worked out, Duffy did an
excellent job as the
newswriter.
The two headliners
received strong support
from other members of the
cast with Murray Ellis as
Murray, the slightly
befuddled New York cop
deserving special mention.
Completing the card
playing foursome in which
the play seemed to revolve
around were Alden Jones as
Speed, David Douglas as
Roy and Stan Lacey as
Vinnie.
As the play progressed
throughout the evening,
momentum seemed to be
gained as we saw an Oscar,
desperate for com
panionship after six months
of divorce, throwing his
home open to Felix who had
left his wife and then, but a
few weeks later, begging
Felix to pack his bags after
ruining an evening with two
flighty English “birds” who
lived in the same apartment
building.

HULLY GULLY
The Ontario motocross
championships are coming
to Hully Gully this Sunday,
July 9.
Heading the list of pros
entered for this Sunday’s
event is Kirk Bigelow,
Rochester, Michigan.
Bigelow leads the pack with
50 points following closely by
Leo Wilson, Delevan, New
York and Afan Logue,
Hamilton with 49 and 46
points respectively.
Other riders contesting the
$2,500. purse include Dave
Taff and Joe Bardoel,
London, Brian Holloway,
Woodstock and Wayne
Ryerson, Clinton.
Some 200 of the best riders
in Ontario and neighboring
states will blast off at noon.
as the two sisters and drew
roars of laughter from the
attentive crowd with the
over-obvious display of some
of their physical attributes.
One scene which the crowd
lapped up took place just
prior to the breakup in the
living arrangement between
the two men with Felix
saying to Oscar “I’m a
neurotic, but you’re crazy.”
The technical aspects of
the play come off quite well
with Alistair MacRae’s
interpretation of a mid
sixties Manhatten apart
ment being well done, along
with nicely subdued lighting
by Christopher Popowich,
The 60’s clothing as done
by Merilee Atos is good,
right down to the red and
blue stripe jockey shorts of
Oscar.
Prior to the play’s opening,
Judy Savoy of CFPL and a
member of the cast of the
next Playhouse production
“Parlor, Bedroom and
Bath” sent hundreds of
balloons skyward in com
memoration of the
Playhouse’s seventh seasQn,
After the evening’s per
formance Carlson and Duffy
cut a cake in honour of the
seven years of summer
theatre at Grand Bend.
Summer stock is a theatre
medium which is meant to be
fun for the both the spec
tators and the participants.
Searing social commentary
you won’t find and you
should not find. As one
Playhouse patron put it
“Summer stock is something
which you should have a
hard time remembering
what you saw the morning
after.”
The “Odd Couple” is a
play in which the important
thing to remember is the
number of laughs which you
received and in this
production you get your
money’s worth.

Lucan church news
Summer services com
menced in Lucan United
Church Sunday morning whe
Rev. Keith Brown continued
his series “How to Live the
Christian Life.” He said that
we must believe God is
concerned and has in His
hands the guidance for all
situations. He wants to
reveal His plan to each of
us and wants us to share in
that plan, so we must
communicate with God.
However these three
things are not'enough. Our
commitment is completely
necessary and we must be
absolutely dedicated to the
Lordship of Jesus. Our
commitment can be com
plete if we read and study
God’s will for us in the Bible,
if we pray as we seek His will
and ask for power to do His
will. Certain circumstances,
perhaps the needs of others
will help our commitment
and council with other
Christians could be of great
assistance. Mr. Brown told
those present to take their
problems to the Lord and
trust Him for the answers.
Members of the Friend
ship Unit invite you to
purchase one of their
“dessert” cook books and
make up some luscious
desserts during the summer
months. They will make a
lovely hostess or shower gift
too and may be purchased
from any member of that
Unit.
