Central Huron school. drama festival to be held at Blyth Memorial hall on February 28 and March 1. • Exeter's submission, is a play, titl- ed `Commencement', written by South Huron District High School English and Arts teacher Glenda Bur- rell (who also directs the play) with help from cast members Mark Penhale, Kerrin Mehagan, Karen Schade and Vern Iskauskas. The stage crew included assistant direc- tor Joanne Slaght, light and sound technician Richard Voogel and stage manager Karen Hunter. "Commencement" focuses on Karen, a first-year student in residence at UWO • who is valedic- torian of her high school. The day before commencement she gathers together 'her support system - her three closest friends from highschool - even though one is not graduating. Karen's major dilemma is an in- ability to cope with the present without her friends, high school com- munity and family. As each of the characters deals with change and the future in an indivudal way, each also gives fleeting impres- sions of the personal significance of five years spent at SHDHS. All plays performed in the festival are written by professional playwrights or have been an original cooperative effort on the part of the teacher and the cast such as the SHDHS situation. On February 28, the students from the various theatre classes in Huron will meet at Central Huron Secondar- dy School for participation in a number of theatre related workshops and group discussions with profes- sionals in their field. The festival is designed to provide not only a showcase for area talent, but also, it fosters an exchnage of ideas and promotes cooperative friendship between students from the participating schools. As well, the public gets treated to some fine entertainment. On the opening night, Friday February 28, Central Huron Secon- dary School in Clinton will perform the first act of Boiler Room Suite by Rex Deverell. This is a touching play about two skid row bums who, amid the confusion and failure in their lives, manage tout out personal fan- tasies which both make us laugh and touch our heart strings. • Seafarth District Collegiate will perform.an original script called A Passage Throught Prime Time. This play is a humourbus.look at our socie- ty and its slavish attachment to the television. The play is ripe with parody. To conclude the evening, South Huron Secondary in Exeter will also perform an original script called Commencement. This piece deals with the volatile emotions of a first year university student who is called upon to be her high school's valedictorian. On Saturday evening, the fine entertainment continues. Goderich District Collegiate leads off with an hilarious comedy called Hurray for Johnny 'Canuck by Canadian playwright Ken Gass: Johnny Canuck is Canada's answer to "Uncle Sam" or "Captain America". The play has a certain comic books quality to it which will appeal to everyone both young and old. Next, F.E. Madill wry in Wingham will perform their original script called The Borderline.. This play deals with the traffic elementaci teenagers up Wail increasing complicated Armful world. It is an honest and sometimes painful look at our need for friendship in moments of great despair. To conclude the Festival on Satur- day evening, the final adjudication will take place with a number of awards being given ut for outstanding performances. Tickets for students are :3.00 or $5.00 for both nights. Adults will be charged $4.00 for each night. Tickets will bean sale at.the door both even- ings, and light refreshments wW also be served.
