Energetic comedy thriller at Blyth
Daisy, played by Linda Bolen and Rafe, played by Jeff Christensen, stars of One Night
Stand, a Theatre Circle production performed at the Blyth Memorial Hall March 7 to 9,
celebrate Daisy's birthday.
By James Friel
BLYTH - The Theatre Circle of'Blyth has
chosen a hard course to follow as it is com-
mitted to travelling theatre during the dull
days of fall, winter and spring.
And for its first production this spring, the
theatre tackled a difficult play from a dif-
ficult genre, the comedy thriller One Night
Stand, by Carol Bolt. Their efforts resulted
in a production full of energy which pleased
audiences attending the four shows in three
days.
Linda Bolen plays Daisy, a pretty young
woman whose best friend has forgotten her
birthday and whose married boyfriend is
tied up with duties at home.
She decides to pick up a man at a bar, as an
adventure to vary her dull bank teller's life
and have her own birthday party.
Rafe is a drifter with a lot of quirks about
his nature and the first part of the play
delops their relationship and some of the

aspects of his character begin to show
themselves to a sometimes scared Daisy.
He's an inveterate liar - does he come
from Kapuskasing or Detroit, is he a com-
puter programmer, a loans officer or a
drifter, did he go to prison and was it for
homicide or not - and at times anticipates
what Daisy is about to say with uncanny ac-
curacy. He's a skillful manipulator, a
classic paranoid schizophrenic.
Daisy is alternately scared silly and using
all her feminine wiles to drag the handsome
Rafe to bed.
Both Linda Bolen and Jeff Christensen,
who plays Rafe, inject huge amounts of
energy into their parts. Ms. Bolen portrays'
Daisy, edging into spinsterhood and
developing a sharp tongue to keep the real
involvement she longs for at a safe distance,
with an understanding of Daisy's daily rut
and her wacky sense of humor which she
periodically allows to escape.
Mr. Christensen's interpretation of the
psychotic Rafe must have required a great
deal of insight. The dangerous feel
generated throughout the play comes ex-
clusively from Rafe and his swings from
winning enthusiasm and knowledgeable in-
sights into Daisy's character to the childlike
fascination with violence and death which
gradually stimulates the viewer's horror un,
til the conclusion.
The unique role of the third performer in
the play is filled by a number of Blyth and
area residents. That is of Sharon, Daisy's
best friend and competitor, and is an ad-
mirable attempt by those of 'Theatre Circle
to make theatre more accessible to as wide
an audience as possible. Sharon is played
variously by Sheron Stadelmann, Sylvia
Stevenson, Shelley Dee, Bonnie Tobin and
Cindy Brewer.
One Night Stand is playwright -producer
Keith Roulston's first foray into directing
and he seems to have handled the intricate
assignment with confidence.
'l'he set for the play could have been better
built. Some of the action in the play, which is
set on the seventeenth floor of a downtown
Toronto apartment building, causes the
walls to wobble and the spectator to wince.
Because the company focuses on travelling
the constraints of portability are probably
responsible .for . the unsteadiness and
simplicity of the set.
The Theatre Circle takes One Night Stand
on a circuit that includes Chatham, Sarnia,
and Owen Sound to fulfill its goal of bringing
theatre to audiences during the slow periods
of the year. -
The next production is a collaboration of
Roulston and Uwe Meyer called T.G.I.F. or
Thank God It's Friday.
"It's a show full of fun and music as these
four (the major characters) struggle to
make a living, battling problems you'll
recognize from your own life."
It runs in Blyth from April 19 to 20.
