Kincardine's new summer stock theatre hopes to recapture some of the Pavilion's former romance in its presentation of Tight -hearted, musical productions in a casual, cabaret setting five nights a week during the months of July and August. A great deal of work has gone into restoring the Pav to some of its former grandeur. Bluewater's premiere production "Blue Champagne" features nostal- gic music from radio broadcasts of the 1940s and pays tribute to an era when the Pavilion was at its zenith. The nostalgic production of swing ballads and big band sounds features over 75 songs from the era, and features three Ontario per- formers: Deanna Overland, Shelley Simester and Eric Degray. Tickets for weekday performances are $15 and $20 for weekends. Call the box office at 396-5722 for further information. Blyth Festival establishes play development fund BLYTH - On the opening night of the 20th anniversary season,. the Blyth Festival announced the es- tablishment of The Roulston Roy Play Development Fund. The fund will be specifically directed towards the creation and development of new scripts by Canadian writers with a particular view towards possible production on the Blyth stage. The Roulston Roy Play Develop- ment Fund recognizes and honors James Roy, Keith Roulston and Anne Roy, the founders of the Festival. The mandate for new play development at Blyth began with the first season' in 1975, when James and Keith chose to take.. the considerable risk :of ' presenting a new Canadian play ."Mostly in Clover", based on the work of Huron County native Harry J.S. Boyle. Over . the ensuing two decades 65 new Canadian works have premiered on the stage of Blyth Memorial Community Hall. The establishment of this fund will enable the Festival to pursue its truly unique mandate of developing and presenting "our own stories on stage" well into the future. ..
