The three had parts in the production of Cabaret at South Huron District High School. Photo by Brad Baynham Students show talent 0 Cabaret is a smash her frustrated landlady. Ed Hunter-Duvar as Herr Shultz, does best in a scene where he sings at a drunken party, At the beginning of the per- formance the orchestra tended to drown out the singers from time to time, but that problem was cor- rected towards the end, I don't know whether the singers gained volume with confidence, or the orchestra softened. Settings and props were good and a minimum of time was spent moving between the Kit Kat Klub and the boarding house. Directors Glenda Hoar, Colin Lowndes and Pat Quigley are to be commend- ed. One trivial note—just in case the costume designer was, striving for realism—the Nazi swastika on Ernest's arm band was backwards and sideways. And one complaint—it was hot, stuffy and smokey sit- ting in the balcony. Another time ushers might consider enforcing p no smoking rule, or in lieu of that, setting up a non-smokers section. Air conditioning would have been nice, too. Times-Advocate, May 21, 80 Page 3 Hope to end dust complaints • will be required to niake.

Mayor Boyle said that he and Cameron had been unable to meet with Len Veri as yet to discuss the problem. Veri owns the land on which' the trucks are dumping the dirt. At last week's meeting, some 75 residents of the area presented council with a petition seeking some relief from the dust problem and also pointing out the safety aspects as there are no sidewalks in the area and they feared for the safety-of the 24 children living in the area. Concern was also expressed for silting in the local dam reservoir. The Exeter planning board this week recommended that the town cease dumping at the Veri site, although works superintendent Glenn Kells told council at their Monday session that the town was not using the site anyway.

UNTIL 9:00 By MARY ALDERSON It was certainly worth 'every cent of the $2.00 ad- mission fee. The entire audience thought so when they gave the cast a long, standing ovation Friday night, Cabaret—the play itself is a' far cry from any of your typical high school musicals —and theactors in this performance made it far superior to any high school production I've ever seen. All the students in- volved in the three night run at South Huron District High School should be proud, • Cabaret—has everything: singing and dancing, love and romance, drama, even overtones of war, And there are black garter belts, hints of promiscuity, prostitution and abortion. Pretty racy stuff to be acted out by high school students in a county where certain bboks have been banned. But as I said before, the audience loved it. And I would guess that more than half the audience was made up of parents. Karin Kristoferson was outstanding as Sally Bowles. Occasionally one might have 'thought she was imitating Liza Minelli who made the movie version of Ctibarei famous. In fact, Kristofer- son does a classic Judy Garland scene, With a cigarette in,•,cone hand and a dria-Anttligother, she stifles. her -sobs, staggeif, to her feet, and belts out a' song:. David Sandilands as the Emcee was also excellent. Sandilands has a strong clear voice and carried himself well on stage. In one scene he dances with Kit Kat girls Kathy Giffin and Marj Ritchie, and the choreography is top notch, Doug Raymond as Cliff Bradshaw and peter Klungel as Ernest Ludwig both handled their parts well.' Ilona Schaufler is excellent as the hooker next door, and Melissa Veal does well as :, , - _,:v,- r- v--n _ . •. 4. , . .p. _-_ , SUPER CHINA SALE Royal Albert Paragon .. - Why Order? - Come To The Store , --- .
