Featuring 'arious songs of Ziegfield Follies star Fanny Brice and Beth Anne’s own favourites, her amusing com­ mentary gives the evening a warm and personal flavour. She began her career at 15, singing in her home town of Ottawa. After training in London, England, she made her theatre debut at London’s famous Hamp­ stead Theatre Club in “The Fanta- stiks”, thus beginning a highly successful career in musical com­ edy. As one of Canada’s leading performers; a singer and actress, she works on stage, television, radio and in the recording studio. Her specials for CBC Radio’s “Morningside” on Fanny Brice, Yvette Guilbert and Harold Arlen, have been extremely popular and have twice been nominated for ACTRA awards. She has appeared regularly on CBC-TV’s “Mr. Dress-Up Show” for children and on “Sesame Street”. At the Shaw Festival she drew outstanding praise from critics in her starring roles in “Rose Marie” and “The Desert Song”. Another critic commented about her allur­ ing stage presence: “she has a way with a song in the best show biz tradition ... all the passion and ferbour possible, rousing the audi­ ence to a riot of applause.” The London Free Press called her “the best argument for miniaturization. From her tiny frame, she brings a carload of energy, talent and emotion to her two-hour show ... a joy to watch.” For ticket informa- tion on “Beth Anne Cole Sings”, call the Blyth Festival Box Office at (519) 523-9300.

Their instructor, G. Stacey says that while the pace is more relaxing than in a large acute care setting, the variety of procedures that they are al lowed to participate in is greater and the learning experience is “terrific”. Time spent in Out-Patients and the Physiotherapy Department is emphasing the trend towards “wellness” and exposing them toother health disciplines. Seaforth nurses are making the experience very positive for the students by not only teaching, but showing that they themselves are receptive to learning from the students as well.
