Ivey and the costumes for the 40 member cast are by HCP Wardrobe Head, Jo Zvonkin. Through the skills of Flying By Foy, Peter Pan, Wendy, John and Michael will fly through the air with the greatest of ease, and audiences seeing the effect to the accompaniment of the jubilant and bouncing song I'm Flying, will feel as if they are joyously floating about in spirit! Tickets for Peter Pan...the musical are literally flying out of the box office window. Calling the Box Office at (519) 238-6000, and fly to Neverland to be happy as a child again!

The course, Education Programs, is part of a series of nine which are held throughout the province, with the objective of completing a Cer­ tificate in Museum Studies. The program is supported by the Muse­ um Assistance Programme, Federal Department of Communications and the Ontario Ministry of Cul­ ture, Tourism and Recreation. Participants have five years to complete all courses of study. In addition to the Goderich course, the 1994-95 programme content is Museums in Context, Artifacts, Care of Collections, Collections Management, Exhibit Design, The Historic Building as a Museum, Museums and the Community and Organization and Management of Museums. Huron County Museum Education Co-ordinator Pat Hamil­ ton says the program has been designed to provide standard train­ ing for those interested in museum work. Twenty-nine registrants from across the province were at the course held at the Museum, which began Monday morning, May 30 and ended on Wednesday after­ noon. They covered topics such as "Learning Principles for Students in Grades kindergarten to 6", "Ado- lescent Learners", "Programme Design at the Huron County Muse­ um and Gaol Case Study" and "Museum Educators and Their Pro­ grammes." Besides Ms Hamilton other fac­ ulty members were: Claus Breede, Huron County Museum director; John Carter, museum advisor with the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Recreation; Janet Chessell, professional development assistant; Marg Dickson, education consul­ tant; Dorothy Duncan, executive director, Ontario Historical Society; Doug Gordon, teacher; Ian Kerr- Wilson, director, Hamilton Muse­ um of Steam and Technology; Jane Kerr-Wilson, teacher; Helen Koep­ ke, education consultant; Lynne Kurylo, museum consultant; Bruce Richard, curator, Heritage School­ house; Ray Scotchmer, assistant curator, Huron County Gaol; Dave Woodhall, education officer, Min­ istry/ of Education and Training and Susan Wyatt, teacher. Mr. Carter said the OMA has been in existence for 20 years. The certificate studies, though they have been traditionally taken by people interested in museum work, are not exclusive. "In this particular course there was a whole range, from students to unemployed peo­ ple registered, which was a bit of a change. It is seen as a form of job training, however," he said. The course in Goderich served a two-fold purpose, Mr. Carter said, in that it was part of the education mandate for the museum as well as leaving ideas behind for museum staff to design and implement new programs on their own.

By John Schedler Of the numerous feature length movies based on skits which originated on Saturday Night Live, probably the best has been Wayne's World, which took in mega bucks at the box office in 1992. The surprise, for me at least, was that it was highly enjoyable and also dam funny. Well, surprise again, the sequel Wayne's World 2 ***1/2 (Paramount) is an even Detter movie than the first installment, although it took in only a fraction of the money the original film managed to accumulate. In this latest installment Wayne (Mike Myers) and Garth (Dana Garvey) are still partying on, but when a vision of "Doors" legend Jim Morrison visits Wayne in a dream he decides to stage a mammoth rock concert in Aurora, Illinois which is christened Waynestock. .-Meanwhile, Garth begins a relationship with a beautiful babe (Kim Basinger) he meets at a laundromat. This plot may seem a bit thin but it's funny and a totally excellent movie. (Rated PG-13). Director Robert Altman is one of those artistic rebels who remains on the outside of the Hollywood mainstream despite box office hits like M*A*S*H, Nashville and The Player. His latest film Short Cuts *** 1/2 (Alliance) is a rambling three hour drama which resembles Nashville, only this time the setting is Los Angeles and the focus is on the interconnecting lives of 22 people. The script by Robert Altman and Frank Barhydt is based on several short stories by Raymond Carver and the large cast which includes Tim Robbins, Madeleine Stowe, Robert Downey Jr., Lily Tomlin, Jack Lemmon and many others expertly brings these characters to life. This is a fascinating film by a director who continues to go his own way. (Rated R for language, violence and sexual situations.) Among the other new and unpreviewed releases available this week is My Life (Columbia/Tristar), the story of a man (Michael Keaton) who discovers he has terminal cancer and decides to make a video for his unborn child. (Rated PG-13) Sean Astin stars in Rudy (Columbia/Tristar), based on the true life story of Rudy Ruettiger, who, despite being short and weighing in at only slightly over 100 pounds, sets his sights on playing football for the Notre Dame fighting Irish. (Rated PG) In the classic movie department are several movies made early in the career of Alfred Hitchcock. This package of high quality, rarely seen films includes The Farmer's Wife, a 1929 silent comedy scripted by the director. Blackmail *** (Republic), Britain's first sound film also from1929 is actually part silent with some talking sequences and is a dandy thriller. The Criterion Collection also offers Blackmail on laser disc in a special film buff version which features a secondary audio track with a commentary by the film's writer Charles Bennet and a few other goodies like test footage and a short film on the introduction of sound to the movies. The other titles offered are Murder (1930), Rich And Strange (1931), The Skin Game (1931), and Number 17 (1932). Now here is the best part, each movie on VHS sells for only $9.95 or less with the laser disc version of Blackmail costing around $60. video (FdZL.X.. is brought to you by...
