Five dramatic plays and one opera will be presented dur- ing the season which has been extended to eighteen weeks, opening on June 6th, and con- tinuing until October 8th. The last four weeks will include six student matinees per week. The five plays to be produced include three by Shakespeare, "Henry V", "Henry VI", and "Twelfth Night", all presented in The Festival Theatre, In the Avon Theatre you can see "Nicholas Romanoff', a play about the late Czar of Russia, by William Kinsolving, or Strindberg's "The Dance of Death". Also in the Avon Theatre, the Festival Opera Company will present Mozart's opera "Don Giovanni", in Eng- lish. Four top directors will direct the plays. Old friend and bril- liant director Michael Lang- ham will be back after a year's absence to direct "Henry V" and "Nicholas Romanoff' . The latter will open in March at the Manitoba Theatre Centre in Winnipeg, and open in Stratford in July. John Hirsch of that Winnipeg Theatre will direct "Henry VI", and making his debut at Stratford will come David William from the Citi- zens' Theatre, Glasgow, Scot- land, to direct "Twelfth Night", the third and last Shakespear- ean play. Jean Gascon, as- sociate director of the Festival, will direct the French-Canadian production of "Dance of Death" in English. It too, will be seen first at the Theatre Centre in Winnipeg. Gascon will also be in charge of the Mozart Opera, which will open the second week in July in the Avon Thea- tre. The variety in plays chosen has forced the choosing of a bi- cultural cast, so we will have the chance of seeing in person some of our top French-Canad- ian actors and actresses at work. Among them will be Jean- Louis Roux who will play the Duke of Burgundy in both 'Hen- ry' plays; Denise Pelletier, who once starred on the TV series "The Plouffe Family", as a leading star in "Dance of Death", Queen Isabel of France in "Henry V", and the Duchess of Gloucester in "Henry VI"; along with Gaetan Labreche, Marcel Sabourin, Guy L'Ecuyer, and Gascon himself who will play King of France in "Henry V" and a leading role in his own production, "Dance of Death". Many of our top English- speaking stars will be back again this season. Douglas Rain, who played so wonderfully the young Prince Hal last year, will return to play the same role who now, of course, is "King Henry V". He will also play Sir Toby Belch in "Twelfth Night". One of our finest (I would say THE finest), William Hutt will return to por- tray the title role in "Nicholas Romanoff", and also two im- portant roles in the 'Henry' plays. Tony Van Bridge, who made such a hit last year with his portrayal of Falstaff, will play Exeter in "Henry V", Humphrey in "Henry VI", and a lead role in the Russian play. Eric Christmas will again play the comic Bardolph in "Henry V", a role he began in last twnesuarami...•••••....o.no.......,.......per tar. • *ow 11.11.•..1.11111.0.111=1,i14...........•••••.1.111111111,01111..1.1M,emnroal •
