Box Office Westcoast hires new co-ordinator Goderich Little Theatre and Wingham Town Hall Heritage Theatre announce the hiring of Margot Laberge Hall as co-ordinator for Box Office Westcoast. The intent of the project is to begin to set up a box office system that will provide a design, marketing and sales service for Huron County’s cultural, recreational, and service club events. Initially Box Office Westcoast will have two main sites. One site will be at the Heritage Theatre in Wingham and the other at the Livery Theatre in Goderich. Box Office Westcoast will be establishing a client list which will include, but not be limited to, The Wingham Town Hall Heritage Theatre, The Town of Goderich and Wingham Recreation Departments, the local area churches and service clubs. Although it will take time to initiate a full service to all of Huron County, non-profit organizations from anywhere in Huron County can request to become a client. Box Office Westcoast will provide clients with marketing through poster distribution, on-line advertis- ing through a Box Office Westcoast website, and links to radio and press. In addition Box Office Westcoast will operate a six day a week, 12 hour a day box office in Wingham and Goderich where local residents and visitors can purchase tickets to local events in person, by phone on a toll-free line or on-line via Internet. Box Office Westcoast will provide a co-ordinating service for the Wingham and Goderich area by helping community events holders choose their events dates so as not to conflict with other events thereby increasing their potential market share. Such a service does not con­ flict with any existing services but meets the needs of the local commu­ nities. In addition to its marketing and box office function, the participants will act as producers for a youth concert series to be staged at the Wingham Town Hall Heritage Theatre and the Livery in Goderich. “Enlisting support for this project was very easy,” said Laberge Hall, “The need for a sustainable box office is very real.” Renowned performers to appear at Celtic Fest.

Aside for the musical treats, the festival offers a craft area, children’s participatory area, dance stage, sto­ rytelling and four other workshop stages.

Lome Elliott returns to Theatre on the Grand Lome Elliott, host of CBC Radio’s Madly Off in All Directions, thrilled Theatre on the Grand audiences in 1998 with Collected Mistakes. Finally, he’s back with the sequel, Collected Mistakes II, which runs at Theatre on the Grand in Fergus from Aug. 23 to 26. Canadian bom Elliott is an accom­ plished humourist, storyteller, come­ dian and musician who has per­ formed all across Canada, the U.S., and Australia. He began his career in 1974 as a folk singer, but also began writing fiction, monologues and one-liners. The result of Elliott’s multi talents? A well-crafted show of comedy and music theatre that is totally original, incredibly entertain­ ing and genuinely uplifting. Elliott is also an accomplished playwright. One of his plays, The Night the Raccoons went Berserk won the Best New Play Award at the 1983 Quebec Drama Festival. His newest work Tourist Trap follows the foibles of Bruno, who is trying to convince friends and relatives that his mosquito infested shack is really a beachfront luxury cabin. Tourist Trap has its world pre­ miere at Theatre on the Grand on Aug. 30. Tickets for Collected Mistakes are available at Theatre on the Grand, 244 St. Andrew St. W„ Fergus, or call the Box Office at (519) 787- 1981.
