The Citizen, 1991-07-17, Page 20PAGE 20. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 17,1991. Young actors take environmental theme A trashy tale The rats worship the trash monster, during the Blyth Festival youth workshop production Oh Mighty Dislikable One presented at a special presentation on Friday, July 12. The event was the culmination of a two week workshop for students aged 5 to 12. The theme this year was the environment. This particular play was performed by the older children, while the younger group presented a poem, In the Woods One Day, and a play entitled Trashy and the Unicorn. Rehearsals began Monday for this summer's production of the Blyth Festival Young Company a drama workshop for students between the ages of 13 and 18. This year the Company will be presenting a new "green comedy" The Polar Bear Swim, a collective creation of stories and music under the direction of Jennifer Brewin and musical director Jennifer Iutzi. Also involved are Joanne Olson as stage manager, Dave Latour and Michelle Carter for set and poster designs, Stacey Hlusiak as assistant director and Heather Morton as production manager. The Polar Bear Swim is a come­ dy about the painful and joyous relationship that human beings have with nature. In addition to rehearsing the Young Company members will be researching local environmental issues as well as those of national and global con­ cerns in preparation for the final performance on August 17. Last Friday after participating in a two-week drama workshop, youngsters between the ages of 5 and 12 presented their environmen­ tal productions as the climax to the that segment of the Festival sum­ mer youth programs. Activities involved with the workshop included mask making, under the guidance of artistic advi­ sors David Latour of Zurich and Michelle Carter of Clinton. They also made a monster out of trash and non-recyclable garbage, dub­ bing it "Oh Mighty Dislikable One". Over 30 students from the area took part in the program.
