Blyth Festival's 1999 company for Silver Season announced
BLYTH - The actors,
directors, designers and
technicians who will
mount the Blyth Festival
Silver Season are all cho-
sen, and many have
begun work on what
promises to be a truly
fun -filled and festive
25th season.
Members of the
Festival's creative team
will be front and centre
this year as honorary
associate artist, Jerry
Franken, takes to the
Festival stage for the
16th year in Every
Dream and as Sam
Walton, founder of Wal-
Mart in the outrageously
funny Big Box.
Also in Big Box, Blyth's
assistant artistic director
Eric Coates, whom audi-
ences will remember
from Barndance Live!,
Booze Days in a Dry
County and Yesteryear,
takes on a comic turn as
Canada's most inept pri-
vate detective.
Coates will also be the
director of the comedy -
thriller When the Reaper
Calls.
Newly appointed hon-
orary artist, designer
Shawn Kerwin, who first
designed for Blyth in
1977 and last year gave
audiences a visual treat
with the stunning set
and costumes for
Thirteen Hands, will be
back for her 17th show.
Other Blyth favourites
in starring roles this sea-
son are Huron County's
own Ted Johns in The
Great School Crisis of
'99, and the fabulous
Diana Belshaw in Thai
Summer.
Terry Tweed has
scored the funniest role
as the grey-haired owner
of a failed "mom and
pop" store-, now turned
Winnebago -driving -mad -
bomber in Big Box.

Tweed made their first
