Curtthn is
set to rise
at Blyth
BLYTH - It may be unlucky for some, but
the Blyth Festival's 13th season looks like
being one of the largest, busiest, and most
adventurous to date! Rehearsals for Girls In
The Gang and Bordertowu Cafe are in full
swing, costumes are receiving finishing
touches in the wardrobe department, sets
are being painted, and telephones are ring-
ing non-stop in the Box Office with ticket
orders. It's the start of another exciting
season!
The Gala Opening on June 19 is now just
days away. Tickets for the dinner and per-
formance (Girls In The Gang) for this date
are completely sold out, but seats for many
other dates are still available. (And don't
forget, if you attend a performance of any
play prior to July 11, the tickets are cheaper
- only $8; $10.50 Saturday evenings.)
On June 19, the Gala festivities begin at 5
p.m. when Art Clark, chairman of the Huron
County Board of Education, officially opens
the exhibition in the Blyth Festival Art
Gallery of work by Huron County high
school students. At 6 p.m., the head table
dinner guest will be piped into the lower
level of Memorial Hall by Blyth resident
Rick Elliott. As usual, the opening night din-
ner is catered by the Blyth United Church
Women.
Special guests for the Gala Opening are
Harry J Boyle, a Huron County native,
noted author, and former head of the CRTC,
and Bill McNeil, author and co -host of the
popular CBC radio program Fresh Air.
Following the dinner, entertainment will be
provided by the Blyth Festival Singers,
beginning around 7:30 p.m. on the lawn out-
side Blyth Memorial Hall; the entertain-
ment is free of charge. The opening night.
performance of Girls In The Gang by Ray-
mond Storey with music by John (Country
Hearts) Roby, begins at 8:30 p.m.
With the Gala Opening of the Blyth
Festival's 13th season only days away,
business at the box office is very brisk.
Thursday matinees and Saturday evenings
are proving the most popular performances,
with some dates already sold out: Thursday
matinees on June 25, July 16, and August 20
and Saturday evening July 18, plus the open-
ing night on June 19.
Voucher and group sales have shown a
marked increase for the past few years and
are up again this year, vouchers by nearly
10 per cent. While it is now too late to pur-
chase tickets through voucher packs, sav-
ings can still be made for those wishing to
see a play prior to July 11. Up to that date,
the tickets cost $8 for adults ($10.50 on Satur-
day evening) ; after July 11, ticket prices in-
crease slightly to $9 and $11. For those who
have already purchased voucher packs, you
are urged to exchange them for tickets by
July 11 in order to guarantee seating for the
play of 'your choice.

Music weekend in Waterloo
A special invitation is being extended to
Huron County residents to attend the
Sounds of Summer festival in Waterloo, a
two-day June celebration of the rich
history of music in the city.
"We have a close relationship with
Huron County and many young people
from Huron attend university here. We
want their families to join us in a weekend
of musical celebration so they can get to
know us, as a neighbouring municipality, a
little better."
The Sounds of Summer is an annual old-
time picnic and cavalcade of music that
takes place mainly in Waterloo Park the
first weekend of the summer. This year the
dates are June 20-21.
Canadian folk star Murray McLauchlan
is the top attraction on Saturday after-
noon. And there will be performances by
the Kiwanis Kavaliers, Waterloo Concert
Band, Kitchener Musical Society Band,
Runaway and Glen Chatten Orchestra. On
Sunday there will be a park church ser-
vice, and performances by the Vern
Barnett Orchestra, Waterloo Co-op Jazz
Band, Ed Bickert Quartet, Line One, The
Lincolns and Eight Seconds, Canada's hot-
test new band.
Saturday afternoon there is a Children's
Festival, complete with a midway, clowns,
face -painting and special music for
children, all at Seagram Stadium.
And you don't have to pack a picnic
lunch. Food booths will be located
throughout the park.
"This is an event for all walks of life -
families, senior citizens, teenagers and
kids," says Carroll. "It's old-time, it's
nostalgia and it's just for fun."
"We think it's a wonderful opportunity
for our friends and neighbours in nearby
counties, towns, and villages to visit and
enjoy, their university town. And we also
think it's one of the best lineups of musical
talent you'll find at a free concert
anywhere in the country."
