According to the Foundation, the way to help Canadians successfully adapt to healthier eating habits is by consulting those with culinary and nutrition expertise. "By matching a cooking authority and trained chef, like Bonnie Stern, with nutritionist Denise Beatty, we chose two experts who are in tune with emerging food and nutritional trends," says Carol Dombrow; director of health promotion, Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario. "Since 1989, the Foundation has been at the forefront of changing the Canadian diet. With our latest cookbook, we have been able to combine high taste and good nutrition with easy preparation," Ms Dombrow says. A survey of Canadian consumers showed that 79 percent arc cooking low-fat and 76 percent arc cooking low calorie (Statistics Canada, 1991). "When I first started offering low-fat cooking classes in 1978, they weren't well attended," says Ms. Stern. "But times and attitudes as Fenton, Wayne Best as George Page, Barbara Bryne as Mistress Quickly, Robert Haley as Sir Hugh Evans, William Hutt as Sir John Falstaff, Tim MacDonald as Slender, Kari Matchett as Anne Page, Tom McCamus as Ford, William Needless as Justice Shallow, Stephen Ouimette as Doctor Caius, Chick Reid as Mistress Page and Dixie Seatle as Mistress Ford. The Merry Wives of Windsor begins preview performances Monday, May 8, and runs until Sunday, Oct. 29. As hilariously improbable as a modern bedroom farce, this tale of have changed. People are now more concerned with buying the bet quality ingredients and cooking them properly to bring out the most flavour." During her cross-Canada tour, Ms Stern found more restaurant chefs integrating low-fat cooking into their repertoire and chef training colleges including low-fat cooking programs into their the misadventures of a would-be seducer gives a fascinating glimpse of middle-class life in Shakespeare's own day - and some timelessly valuable insights into the ups and downs of married life. This play has been produced five times in the Festival's 42-year history and was last mounted at the Avon Theatre in 1990. William Hutt, who will be celebrating his 75th birthday in May, returns for his 32nd season at Stratford to play Falstaff. In addition to performing in three of this year's productions, Mr. Hutt will serve as Consultant to the Artistic Director. curriculum. "There are people who still think that low fat food is second class," says Ms Stern "However, when chefs start to get involved, low-fat cooking becomes something that is wonderful and delicious." Simply HeartSmart Cooking is third in a series of best-selling cookbooks offered by, the Heart and Stroke Foundation. HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY FRED McCLURE March 9 From Brighton Beach Memoirs to Biloxi Blues to Broadway Bound and from wisecracking adolescent to wide-eyed Army recruit to fledgling comedy writer, the story of Eugene Morris Jerome continues. Broadway Bound the final chapter of Neil Simon's acclaimed autobiographical trilogy, opens at The Grand on March 17 and runs until April 1, 1995. The year is 1949 - for Eugene Jerome and his brother, life as a comedy-writing team is about to begin if only they can finish the sketch for CBS by morning. But their wry, close-to-the-bone observations are not quite so funny to the family members who inspire them. Things will never be the same in Brighton Beach. At the time of its premiere, The New York Daily News said that Broadway Bound was "expectedly funny and unexpectedly touching." Broadway Bound reunites the members of the Jerome family who first appeared on The Grand stage GDCI performs Shakespeare's `Dream' A Midsummer Night's Dream is one of Shakespeare's romantic comedies. The characters are subject to fairy tricks and unusual fancies when they are within the boundaries of an enchanted wood. A fascinating and humorous tale, the capricious behaviour of mortals in love provides more truth than fiction.
