The
Playhouse
--tinselveil mucdecs nand the -
foggy streets of -Loudon in
1880 blend together to Fake
Angel Street a real Victorian
thriller. This production
o ens tonight at the
Playhouse and rubs through
July 21.
Bella Manningham is the
lady of the house on .Angel
Street and she seems to be
slowly losing her mind. She
dreams, she loses things, she
plays silly little tricks and •
then forgets ever having
done them.
However, it soon becomes
obvious that her diabolical
husband has a calculating
plan to drive his wife crazy.
Mr. Manningham is a known
philanderer, and is
methodically. and
systematically driving his
bride out of her mind.
Onto this scene comes
Detective Sergeant Rough on,
the trail of an unsolved
murder of 15 years ago.
Rough suspects Man-
ningham of mergally tor-
turing Bella'. The dl oblem is
to find evidence against
Manningham because all the
signs indicate that he will
- soon become tired of playing
games with her and do
something about it.
St. Joseph
Continued from page 1A
and he died penniless.
Napoleon Cantinstillbeliev-
es that the canal proposed by
his grandad from St. Joseph
to Port Stanley is a good
idea. Many of the other plans
put forth by Narcisse were
used when the seawaywas
finally opened in 1959.
In marry ways, Narcisse
Cantin was a man about 50
years ahead of his time.
"Many of his plans were.
blocked by powerful railroad
companies, his grandson
says. "An awful lot of money
was spent. but nothing
materialized." Napoleon
Cantin adds. Narcisse's
seaway plans didn't take
shape for many years after
his death. and his dream of
resort areas on Lake Huron's
shores have just come true
in recent years.
'Even the two new shops in
St. Joseph are thoroughly
rooted in Cantin history. The
Towerhouse sells gifts, and
handicrafts. The old house
was built by a Mr.
Bissonette, one of Narcisse's
investors. When he left the
house was taken over by the
Cantin family, and it was
here that Napoleon was
raised. It is npw owned by
Alec and Katherine
Bickerton. and they feature
Canadian made souvenirs.
Mrs. Bickerton also sells
homemade shortbread and
marmalade.
Across the street Brian
and Suzanne Stevens have
opened a gift and antique'
shop m the old Cantin House.
Mrs. Bickerton calls them
"assoeiales, not com-
petition." The Stevens came
to Canada from Britain five
years ago. and their store
features items both old and
new imported from Britain
The Steven's 14 year old
daughter Nikki looks after
the shop for her parents
when they're away. Nikki
says she likes- St. Joseph.
and enjoys living in the old
Cantin house "it's supposed
to have ghosts. and
everything." she says. But'
that doesn't frighten her', she
adds_ -
Unfortunately. though,
some of her friends are
frightenedhy the ghost of St:'
Joseph. she say§.'And'those
friends are the descendants
of Narcisse Cantin. •
