Jason Leeof
is youngest
Blyth
Jason Lee, a iz year old Blyth resident, is
the youngest actor on the Blyth Festival
stage this season. Jason plays the role of
Sandy Purves, the youngest in a family
spanning four generations, in Another
Season's Promise.
He first heard off the acting opportunity
when Mr. Black, principal of Blyth Public
School where Jason is in Grade 7, announc-
eii at-theYesitival wan iooking-foa a boy fair
one of the play's. Along with several other
hopefuls, Jason read lines from the script
for Katherine Kaszas, Artistic Director of
the Festival, and Keith Roulston, co-author
of the play and editor of the Blyth and
Brussels Citizen.
Was he nervous on stage?, "For the first
few nights I was pretty scared, but now I'm
not. I was also really tired at the final
rehearsals, right before the play opened,”
he says. "But now I'm used to it. I normally
go to bed around 11 p.m. anyway so it's not
much different."
Jason's family have lived in Blyth "ever
since I can remember." He doesn't think his
two brothers or baby sister are much im-
pressed with his current fame. And his for-
tune? "It's nice having some money to
spend," says Jason. "I've already bought a
radio and I'm going to buy a fishing rod and
equipment too. The rest I'm saving to take
with me to Florida next year."
And his plans for the future? "I don't
know what I want to do yet," he says. "I've
got lots of -t e-to-deeide. But I don't think I
want to be an actor!
