Clinton Arts Committee prepares
for second entertainment series
CLINTON - April 4 marks the conclusion
of the Clinton Arts Committee's First An-
nual Entertainment Series. But for those
who took in the performances and
thoroughly enjoyed themselves, don't
worry, plans for another series are well
'underway.
The Second Annual Entertainment series
will feature four performances instead of
the three subscribers were previously
offered.
The first of these will be held the end of
June when the Clinton Community Players
once again take to the stage. Last year's
performance of Lover's Leap will be follow-
ed with a Neil Simon play. Although the ac-
tual play has not yet been chosen, the arts
committee is leaning towards a comedy.
The remaining three performances will
feature professionals with the first one tak-
ing place on November 21 at 8 p.m.
On this date, the Vancouver Wind Trio, "a
group unique among Chamber Ensembles,"
will be featured at the town hall auditorium.
This act will be followed by a group from
the other side of Canada. On January 29,
1988, Jest In Time Theatre from Halifax will
entertain.
Jest In Time Theatre consists of five
members who provide "an original style of
physical theatre and weaves together
mime, voice, acting and movement."
The final performance will be put on by
Kenneth "Rink Rat" Brown on March 26,
1988. The One Man Comedy tries to show the
audience that there is "Life After Hockey".
Promotional material for this act says,
"Wayne Gretzky came to see the play and
liked it so much that he now is heard in it
reading the role of 'Number 99,' the God -like
voice who advises and inspires Rink Rat."
The arts committee is confident that their
second series will go over well and is looking

forward to providing entertainment of this
type to the public.
"We're really excited about this series.
It's a different calibre of entertainment than
the previous series," said committee
menftbers Judy Stuart and Steve Campbell.
"It's amazing to see groups from Vancouver
and Halifax right here in Clinton." +,-•
Those who bought tickets last year will get
the first opportunity to buy tickets to the
new series at the Ken Whiteley Music Show
on April 4. For those who are not attending
the Saturday performance, tickets can be
obtained on April 6 at the town hall or from
an arts committee member.
Tickets will be $25 for the four perfor-
mances but the number available is limited
to 250.
Children's Series Offered
For the first time, the Clinton Arts Com-
mittee is offering a children's entertain-
ment series.
The first of three performances will be
April And Susan, a "dynamic and exciting
blend of original songs, poetry and threatre
with lots of audience participation."
Many may be familiar with the group as
they presently have two albums on the
market. As well, Susan performs on the
television show, Mr. Dress Up.
This performance will take place on Oc-
tober 3 at 3 p.m.
Act number two is the Toy Town Troupers
who will take to the stage on December 5 at3
p.m. This event, co-sponsored by the Clinton
Business Improvement Area, will also be
highlighted by the appearance of Santa
Claus.
The Toy Town Troupers will perform The
Second First Christmas which tells the story
of a person who went up in a rocket in 1987,
returned in 2087 to a land that had never
heard of Christmas.
The final performance will be on January
30 at 2 p.m. and will feature Jest In Time
Theatre.
Tickets for these performances will not go
on sale until the beginning of June, however,.
prices have been set at $8 for a single and
$20 for an entire family.
The arts committee is pleased to be able
to "expose children to cultural events out-
side of school. "
However, without the financial support of
the Ontario Arts Council, they would not be
able to provide this type of entertainment in
town.
