Rehearsals on for new Roulston play Rehearsals have begun for the Shortest Distance Bet- ween Two Points which plays at Blyth Memorial Hall, March 15, 16 and 17. The Shortest Distance Bet- ween Two Points is the first play to be presented by a new theatre company called The Theatre Circle which will bring theatre to local au- diences on a regular basis during the fall, winter and spring months. Director of the show is Steve Coopman of Toronto and set and costume designer is Wendy Ball of Stratford who has worked at Stratford Festival, Gryphon Theatre, Barrie and other theatres across Canada._ __ Writer Keith Roulston said he was very pleased with the quality of the cast of the new production. "On the whole," he said, "I think the cast is much stronger than the cast when the show was original- ly produced at the Blyth Sum- mer Festival in 1977. Then the production was the final one of the year and some actors were miscast because of the repertory company concept of the Festival. This time the actors have been specifically chosen for their roles." Brian Caulback plays the part of Scotty McKay, the proprietor of the hardware who is also the troubled village reeve who gets caught between the government which wants to build a super- highway through his town and the townspeople led by the town drunk (Michael Kelly of Toronto) who wants to fight back. Linda Bolen and Robert Derosiers play village coun- cillors who take opposite views on the best line of attack. Thom Allen Bell plays Charlie, the old farmer who gives Scottie advice he often doesn't need but gives the in- sane proceedings the sane perspective they need. Mike McManus of Ottawa plays Thomas F. Smiley and the high-powered big-time politi- cian who comes up with the scheme for the highway and Michael O'Hara is the unlucky government employee who must try to make the plan work. Tickets for the play are now on sale at $7.50 each through The Theatre Circle box office, 102 Dinsley Street, Blyth (Box 429) or the Blyth Centre for the Arts box office or may be reserved by phone by calling 523-9300.
