The play will run every night from August ,28 to September 2 closing the Festival's 1978 season, The play, about a small town two miles off he main highway, is full of music and laughter. (PhotoCourtesy of Blyth Festival) usic returu Blyth The opening of "Two Miles Off" on Wed- nesday, August 23 at 8:30 marked • the return of music to the stage of the Blyth Summer Festival. "Two Miles Off", directed by Brian Rintoul of Mitchell, Ontario, is the story of a small town located two miles from the Main highway - just enough to cut it off and stop the bus and train from stopping there. The play, written by an Edmonton group known as Theatre Network, is full of music and laughter, and will delight those -who have missed the music at Blyth. The play will provide an excellent showcase for the talents of cast members, Kate Trotter, Peter Snell, Elizabeth Hanna, Chris Kelk and Alden Jones. They not only sing, but provide all ,the accompanying music for the show. Flute, mandolin, harmonica and guitar are only some of the instruments played by the cast. Each of the actors and actresses will portray several characters, instead of playing the usual single role. Obviously, the play Is a demanding one, but the company more than measures up to the requirements. "Two Miles Off". also sees the return of two previous Blyth Summer Festival members. Kate Trotter will be a familiar facr to those who at- tended last year's Festival. In addition to her roles in "Two Miles Off", Kate has 'also played Cindy, the secretary in this year's successful "His Own Springtime for Henry opens As • William Inge's comedy -drama Picnic started its two week run, August 15 to 26 at the Huron Country Playhouse in Grand Bend, the old ,theatrical adage, "that's show biz," came into view. Artistic and Managing Director, ' James Murphy and his box office staff have continued to receive inquiries for seats to Oklahoma! the popular Rodgers and Ham- merstein musical which ended its two-week run on August 12. Sold out notices via radio, television, newspapers and the box office -- even before the show opened -- has created a bit of a backlash as many theatre, goers still vie to see the big musical instead of the current comedy -drama, Picnic. There is also another complication. Many people seem to think, also, that the sell- out announcements for both Oklahoma and Bedroom, Parlour and Bath, apply, somehow, to the rest of the season," mused Mr. Murphy this week. "Not so! " he emphasized. ' "It's ' the price of success, I suppose, but show business. that's OPEN WEDDING RECEPTION for Bob and Cheryl MacLeod (nee Patterson) 'at SALTFORD VALLEY HALL Fri., Sept. 1 DANCING 9-1 A.M. Picnic will not sell the same as Oklahoma! nor the Judy Savoy -starring vehicle of course. Picnic does offer a contrast to the light comedies and musicals, There's lots of humour in Picnic, however. But there is also solid drama and poignancy; it verges on being a very earthy type of play telling the story of ,a handsome Casanova who falls for a virginal beauty...and she falling for him after they both don't attend the town picnic. "Young people will identify with Hal and Madge," Mr. Murphy continued, "even though they are figures in the fifties. After all, young love knows no time barrier. Neither does the concern of a mother who feels life has passed her by. Or the situation of middle-aged singles seeking an escape from their lonelinesss and their limitations. These are all universal, timeless themes. They helped make this play a Pulitzer Prize winner. Audiences so far, have loved this humorous drama.. The language is very civil." BIG CHANCE During Picnic's second and final week (Aug. 22- 26) the role of Millie will be played by Amanda Lewis. Margaret Keith, who opened the run in this role of the younger, tom- boy -but -intelligent sister, has a conflicting engagement. This, therefore, ' allows the young and talented Miss Lewis an opportunity to display her versatility. She was seen in Oklahoma as Gertie, the girl who marries the pedlar and she also participated in the singing -dancing chorus. LAST SHOW A rather risque, but harmless farce, CAR WASH Young Couple's Club will be sponsoring a speedy carwash SATURDAY, AUGUST 26 9 A.M. -.5 P.M. OUTSIDE WASH '2.50 INSIDE CLEANED '2.50 Taking Place at Bert & Nellie Dykstra's on Hwy. No. 8 1/4 mile west of Clinton REFRES MENTS AVAILABLE Springtime for Henry by Benn W. Levy, is the Playhouse's sixth and final production of the season. It went into rehearsal last week and will represent the thirties in this season's "Tribute to Six Decade'S" by the summer theatre this year. The 1931 classic will star Anthony Parr, well known as the Desk Sergeant the past three years on TV's "Sidestreet" series in the title role, He plays a happy libertine who reforms because his new secretary only admires "the decent thing". So rescued from his sinful life, Henry soon discovers that being a paragon of purity turns him into a model of virtue -- with disastrous consequences to his family and friends. Joining Mr. Parr will be Marilyn Boyle, cast as Mrs. Jelliwell, wife of Henry's best friend and object of Henry's rakish ways. Miss Boyle was seen this season as Aunt Eller in the recent Oklahoma! and in Parlour, Bedroom and Bath as Leila,Crofton, the divorcee eager to be seduced. (It would seem that Ms. Boyle's characters this season have come full cycle!) Creating favourable notices for himself, J. Winston Carroll as Howard the 42 -year-old beau of the spinster schoolteacher in the current Picnic stays on to play Henry's best friend, Jelliwell. Edward, Everett Horton, the late comedy actor, became reknown for many farcial roles in movies and plays. Btit, touring in this particular role - for 18 years throughout the length and breadth of North America, climaxing this activity by playing it in the '1951 Broadway revival, assured his ,identification with the role for at least two generations of theatre lovers. Despite the fact that other major actors played Henry Dewlip in the original Broadway and West End produc- tions, as well as in the 1934 movie version, Horton has been in- seperably identified as Henry by legions of Springtime for Henry fans. All productions at the Huron Country Playhouse are performed Tuesdays to Saturdays at 8:30 with Wednesday matinees at 2:30 unless otherwise announced.
