Entertainment Leisure Supertramp at Watershed By Janice Becker Citizen staff There will be a lot of singing and dancing in the Henry household this summer as both Ally, 3, and Mikayla, 5, participate in plays at the Blyth Festival. The girls. daughters of Mike and Sandy Henry of Blyth, will be tak- ing to the stage in Goodbye, Piccadilly and The Outdoor Donnellys, respectively. Mikayla is currently performing as one of the Irish dancers at a wed- ding ceremony during The Outdoor Donnellys,-staged in the lower halt of Memorial Hall. She is also the stand-in for her little sister in Goodbye. Piccadilly. Ally, in her plays, appears late in the show as the adopted child, tenta- tively named Nadia. Having attend- ed her first rehearsal last week, Ally says she likes it, as she practises her lines of "yuk" and "yeh". She appears to love music and dance as well and gets quite animat- ed as she cheerfully explains how the other actors dance around her during the performance. She is also very pleased with the costume she gets to wear, as the dress is orange and pink with spark- ly flowers and is topped off with a sun hat, sunglasses, sandals and apparently, lots of smiles. Ally got the call to appear in the play when Festival Artist Director Anne Chislett and show director Diana Belshaw were looking for a young girl around four-years old. "We just got asked," says mom Sandy. Goodbye, Piccadilly previews July 3, with the official opening coinciding with the gala opening for the festival season July 4.
