PAGE 25. N. Huron council hears from artistic director By Bonnie Gropp Citizen editor North Huron council at its Monday night meeting gave its support to the nomination of Huron County for a monetary award from Heritage and Culture Canada and promised to continue its tradition of support for heritage and culture. Blyth Festival's artisitic director Eric Coates appeared before council to explain the program. "The idea behind it is to identify interesting places that rely on culture." On a per capita basis, Coates noted, Huron County "does well" in this category. Producing art is a risky business, said Coates. In theatre they have to "get behind an unproven product." Coates talked of the current interest in examinations of faith. remarking on the controversy surrounding Mel Gibson's recently- released movie The Passion. "We've looked at the origins of the Passion Play and see parallels between this and the community- based work that has always been most successful at our theatre. We want to do a major project explaining the idea of faith." This will require a major shift in budget, said Coates, close to double that of a typical production. Some of the cost would be offset by the heritage award. The play, set for 2005. would see community-based art that would draw on the talents and interests of a diverse group of volunteers across the county, said Coates. A preliminary budget has been done and the earliest figue on the box office at this point would put it at $1.4 million in community revenue should all go as planned, Coates added. The success of this type of North Huron council expressed puzzlement at its Monday night meeting for a recommendation from Huron East. The recommendation asked for support from other municipalities to send a message to county council that a 35 per cent increase in budget would be unacceptable. Councillor Archie MacGowan said he felt it was a little early for such a recommendation. "When we first start budget talks it always looks pretty bleak. You have to whittle it down. I admit those are scary numbers, but I would rather wait to see how the deliberations go before production at Blyth has been proven with The Outdoor Donnellys, said Coates. "But not without a huge amount of goodwill:" Council passed a motion of support. we take any action." The recommendation was filed. *** A request from Central Huron (or 25 per cent funding for capital projects at the Auburn Hall will be considered during budget talks. *** Central Huron has asked that the Blyth Hullett landfill site be kept open until the end of September so that Central Huron can conduct its own studies. The site was set to close by September. North Huron agreed to the extension.
