Although that statement might have struck fear into the hearts of the residents of Lucan, one hundred years ago, it has a different meaning in Blyth, Ontario today. Rehearsals for "The Death of the Donnellys" began at the Blyth Summer Festival this week, and writer Ted Johns director Paul Thompson and Theatre Passe Muraille are busy putting together their spectacular version of the Donnellys saga. The Don- nellys family has given grist to the mill of many writers and playwrights over the past few years, and small wonder, for their exploits and misadventures contain some of the most dramatic and controversial incidents in Canadian history. Theatre Passe Muruille's version of the legend poses a dilemma--were the Don- nellys really true villains who terrorized the coun- tryside, or were they scapegoats for every mishap in Biddulph township? No matter what side of the fence you stand on, the music and action will keep you stepping lively until the final curtain. Familiar names populate this production. Writer Ted Johns is best known in this area for his appearances on stage in "The School Show" and "He Won't Come in From the Barn". Director Paul Thompson and Theatre Passe Muraille are well known for the many productions they have toured SO' 8.01'1 t.k fhl /0* 034 0 .0* • cs‘ it c%Q os° toe AiLs° • 0..":04•fi' " A- 0 . ... i, , ,W • , . -.10101:-.: • ' --,: Corn - on - the - cob available with plenty of Butter!!!
