PAGE 23 Entertainment & Leisure Students get chance to learn at Festival The Blyth Festival is welcoming 20-25 area secondary school stu- dents to the theatre on Oct. 15 to participate in a workshop of The Perilous Pirate's Daughter. Students from secondary schools including Clinton, Goderich, Wingham, Listowel. and Stratford, will be attending the workshops - which are supported by the Ontario Arts Council, Arts in Education pro- gramme. Scripts go through several ver- sions or drafts before anyone ever sees them on stage. A designer's work on the set, costumes and light- ing for a play likewise lives through a series of drafts before the final image is chosen. Students of theatre, whether in high school classrooms or summer programmes such as Blyth Festival's Young Company are exposed to all aspezts of perform- ance and rehearsal. Rarely, howev- er, do they get a look at the first cru- cial steps taken by the designer and director as they decide upon the visual concept for the show. These workshops give students the opportunity to work with the designer and director of a new play for the Blyth Festival. After an ini- tial reading of the script, the partic- ipants and leaders will discuss the physical needs of the story versus the limitations of the theatre space itself. The script, The Perilous Pirate's Daughter, is a new offering from Anne Chislett and David Archibald. Chislett is the outgoing artistic director of the Blyth Festival as well as a winner of the Governor General's Award for her play, Quiet in the Land. Archibald is a songwriter/com- poser who lives in the Kingston area and has produced several CDs .on the marine heritage of the Great Lakes. After the initial, sessions in the autumn, interested students will be invited to ay.ist with the actual con- struction of the set and costumes under the supervision of the Festival professional technical staff. This work will go onstage for the opening of the festival's season in June, 2003. With ongoing financial support, the Festival aims to forge a perma- nent relationship with students who are interested in pursuing all aspect -. of theatrical training., At the Branch Blind mixed darts start Thurs.
