The mandate off the festival since 1975 is the pro- duction of Canadian plays, the majority of them original, and this mandate is made possible with the help of the Playwright's Workshop Program. In the Playwright's Workshop program both new and established writers work with professionals develop- ing scripts. In the program, made possible through the generous assistance of Labatt's Ontario Breweries and the Laidlaw Foundation, five scripts will be workshopped this season. Earlier this deason My Wild Irish Rose by Janet Amos was workshopped under the direction of Paul Thompson before being mounted as the second play of the season. Montreal playwright David Fennario, v lv '`s author of Balconville and On The Job, worked under the direction of Simon Malbogat workshopping his play The Murder of Sharon Parr. Under the direction of Terry Tweed, Uwe J. Meyer, playwright and production manager of the festival, is workshopping Murder I Say with actors Barbara Col- eman, Hugh Webster, Ann Casson, Barry Nellten and Miles Potter. Beginning August 15, Katherine Kaszas, associate artistic director of the festival and organizer of the Playwright's Workshop Pro- gram began directing Toron- to playwright Kathleen McDonnell's Body Shop. Kathleen is the winner of the 1980 National Women's Playwriting Competition. Working with Katherine and Kathleen will be Mary Ann Coles, Diana Belshaw, Fran- cine Volker, Jessica Booker, Harry Nelken and Karen Woolridge.
