Entertainment & Leisure Theatre review `Salt-Water Moon' makes season 3 for 3 Sweet talker Darren Keay as Jacob does his best to win back the heart of Mary (Charlotte Gowdy) in this scene from David French's Salt-Water Moon playing at Blyth Festival until Aug. 20. (Terry Manzo photo) Jacob share the stage and win our hearts. Their story is one of warmth and emotion, laughter and tears, anger and a deep, abiding love. Through its telling the audience enjoys some poignant moments and some good deep belly laughs. Jacob, who left his Newfoundland home for Toronto without a word to Mary a year before has returned a month before her wedding. Her intended is the son of the man who demeaned Jacob's father, and for whom he holds an intense grudge. Mary's father was killed in the war and her mother's breakdown as a result landed Mary in servitude and her younger sister in an orphanage. Learning that she has been mistreated is the reason, Mary finally admits to Jacob, that she has chosen to marry someone who can help. THE Upcoming Events 21 Kids Eat Free 22 Wing Nile Thurs.

Following on the success of The Outdoor Donnellys and Heat Wave, Blyth's third offering this year re- visits a couple with whom we became acquainted in the 2003 season. Last year the Festival production of David French's Leaving Home introduced us to Jacob and Mary Mercer and their family in 1959. It revealed turbulence and conflicts, relationship's where passions and old hurts ran deep. With Salt-Water Moon French takes us back to 1926, a moon-filled night, when Jacob and Mary re-unite and re-kindle their love. It is a dance of emotions as they alternately spar and spark. For one-and-a-half hours Charlotte Gowdy as Mary and Darren Keay as Blyth, understands the characters' ambitions and weaknesses. He has his actors making full use of the stage to good effect. The set design by Shawn Kerwin is effectively simple. Salt-Water Moon, which plays until Aug. 21, is intelligent, emotional and entertaining, a truly winning combination.

Gowdy is a vivacious Mary, a woman of spirit with just enough bite to be interesting. Her wry humour softens a somewhat caustic sting. Through his performance Keay shows us the dreamer in Jacob, the young man with grand plans and a capacity for great love. His bravado masks a vulnerability; his charm is that of a naughty boy who believes a smile and a compliment can fix anything. French's script is heavy on words, light on action and both actors meet the challenge, delivering his eloquent prose with brisk confidence.
