Festival has treat on opening nights 1 A We’re here Grace Correia, left and Laurel Armstrong, of Blyth Festival administration, stand below the new Blyth Festival banners. These were created in response to concerns that first-time visitors don’t know the theatre is in the Memorial Hall. More banners will be hung inside the theatre and further discussions will take place with the Blyth Business Association about other uses and locations for the bright blue and white banners. The Festival’s board of directors contributed to the creation of these special flags. The decision was made that this type of visual support for the theatre is an excellent way to build awareness year round. Blyth Festival and Chapman’s ice-cream products are bringing back the sweet tastes of summers past. The Festival is offering ice­ cream cups with those old- fashioned wooden spoons to their theatre patrons throughout their 25th anniversary season. On July 1 for Blyth Festival’s Tourism Industry Night, Chapman’s provided a complimentary ice-cream cup for every guest in the sold-out theatre, celebrating Canada Day at one of Canada’s foremost theatres, in a very traditional way - with ice cream! This type of partnership and product opportunity is important to the theatre, to build awareness in the corporate sector in this area. Other sponsorship events are being planned including wineries and product introductions at the theatre for gala openings. There are three more Opening Nights during this 1999 season: July 30 - When the Reaper Calls by Peter Colley; Aug. 5 - Every Dream by James W. Nichol and Sept. 3 - Death of the Hired Man conceived and directed by Paul Thompson. Gala receptions are planned for each opening and theatre patrons, company members and playwrights all attend these special celebrations of Canadian premieres. The 25th Anniversary season began on June 25 with a production of David French’s new play That Summer and continues to Sept. 12. The final production of the season will be Death of the Hired Man. This collective production will see the theatre’s auditorium turned into a threshing barn with machinery and workers set on stage and among the theatre guests.
