Tyro plays, ogle .by Shakespeare and the
other by B,et•thoIt Brecht, will be the Strat"
ford Festival's 1986 Young Company pro-
ductllons to run at the Third Stage.
At a press conference held in, Toronto
recently, Festival Artistic Director
Designate John Neville announced
Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and Brecht's
"The. Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui" as the,
two productions. He also introduced Tom
Kerr as the new Festival Associate Director
responsible forthe Young Company and an-
nounced the appointment of Tanya
Moiseiwitsch, co -designer with Tyrone
Guthrie of the Festival Theatre stage, as an
associate director.
"I, am very excited about all this," said
Neville. "To have the wisdom and ex-
perience of Tanya Moiseiwitsch available to
us is a great asset. I am honored by her ac-
ceptance of my invitation to serve as an
associate director."
He also expressed similar enthusiasm
about the Young Company season and the
appointment of Tom Kerr as director of the
Young Company.
"Both the plays chosen are superb works
oftimeless 'relevance and there is no one
better qualified than Tom to run the Young
Company. He is both an educator and a
director of established expertise and' he has
the added advantage of a comprehensive
working knowledge of Canadian theatre
from coast to coast."
Currently Artistic Director of the Neptune
Theatre in Halifax, Tom Kerr is Canadian-
rasied and educated. A Fellow of Trinity
College. London and a former , close
associate of the late Tyrone Guthrie, foun-
ding Artistic Director of the Stratford,
Festival, he has directed at the Citizens'
Theatre in Glasgow, the Traverse Theatre
in Edinburgh, the Phoenix Theatre in

I .eicester and the Arts Theatre in London.
Since returning to Canada more than 30
years ago, he, has directed productions for
many top regional theatres in Canada, in-
cluding the Vancouver Playhouse, the Arts
Club Theatre (Vancouver), the Citadel
Theatre, Alberta Theatre Projects,
Persephone Theatre, the St. Lawrence ,Cen-
tre and, of course, the Neptune Theatre.
For many years, he -co-ordinated the
drama program for the Kamloops School
District in British Columbia and founded the
Western Canada Youth Theatre which later
became Kamloops' regional theatre, the
Western Canada Theatre Company.
In 1973, he directed the British premiere
,of George Ryga's "The Ecstasy of Rita Joe"
and, in 1979, the British premiere of David
Freeman's "Creeps". Both productions
earned him coveted Fringe First Awards at
the Edinburgh International Festival. Prior
to joining the Neptune Theatre, he served
for six years as Professor and Head of the
Drama Department at the University of
Saskatchewan in Saskatoon.
Tom Kerr expressed great anticipation
about his forthcoming responsibilities with
the Stratford Festival.
"I do feel my entire career has been
geared towards this kind of position," he
said. "I''ve been involved with staging pro-
ductions and training actors for many years
and it is my firm belief that classical train-
ing is essential for good actors.
"I must also stress that the Young Com-
pany is not some post -graduate program
after the National Theatre School. Members
of the company will all be first-class profes-
sional actors of a certain age who are spen-
ding a concentrated period of time focussing
on the snecial toehilinu andd Skill' rinm'Thrl-
ed by classical theatre. It will be a concen-
tration on such things as form, period and 1
style and we will make great use of the
tremendous resources available from the
highly skilled and experienced senior
members of the Festival Acting Company -
all actors w'ho have learned, over the years,
how to feed other actors on the stage. Pass-
ing on that legacy is vitally important.
"Yes, a major purpose of the Young Com-
pany is to develop new talent for the
Festival Theatre stage, but we are not. ,the
only beneficiaries. If we do our job properly,
theatre right across the country will benefit
because these actors will be able to pass on
the benefits of their experience to any com-
pany in which they perform. I can't wait to
begin!"

GO *CANADA v'v-r.,'ST
With Expo '86, The West Edmonton Mall, and
the 1988 Winter Olympics coming to
Canada's West, it is expected that. this will
be a popular destination over the next few
years.
i have just returned from a tour of western
Canada where I'en oyed a special tour of the
Expo Site and the West Edmonton Mall. Both,
areas are an absolut,e:must for visitors in
western Canada next year. Expo will feature
some 80 pavilions from 40 Countries
throughout the world including Russia, China
and the United States.
A visit to Expo need not be an expensive holi-
day. Many homes in the Vancouver area are
offering Bed and Breakfast for as low as $15 ,
per night per
r person. Three day passes are
vailable as low as $29.95 (available at
Ellison Travel> until October 15th• As well,
special seat sales with Air Canada and CP
Air, offer very attractive rates to Vancouver
next year, For best price and selection in-
terestederson should be booking now,
The WestEdmontonMall is considered the
8th Wonder of the World. With over 1,000
stores covering some 80 football fields it is
a unique structure. In addition, the Mall has
a hockey arena, a 412 acre lake, SeaWorld,
Fantasy Land with .many rides, and a zoo
displayed throughout the Mall with as many
species of animals you would find in the San
Diego Zoo. There are over 50 restaurants in-
cluding 3 McDonalds as well as an 18 hole
miniature Pebble Beach Golf Course. You
have to see this Mall to believe it.'
Ellison Travel has many Expo tours
available as well. We have two special tours:
one in June which will include Expo, Vic-
toria, the Rockies and the West Edmonton
Mall and the other in July which will include
Expo the Rockies, the Calgary Stampede
and the West Edmonton Mall.
Planning to visit Canada's West in 1986. con-
