After five summers, he is leaving as artistic director of the Blyth Summer Festival, a festival which he has helped to launch and develop. Roy directed this season's first production, This Foreign Land and is presently directing Child, the festival's fourth of- fering of the 'season. It opens July 31 and has only six performances. It is a drama, the festival's most serious play of the season. Written by James Nichol, a full-time writer from Toronto who wrote ,Gwendoline. which •was performed at the festival last year, the story is basically about the effect which children have on parents (Nichol has three. children of his own). "It should have something to . say to people with kids," says Roy. The play features a cast of four --a married couple, Peter and Celia Dure .(Sam Malkin and Kate Trotter) whose son disappears in a snow storm and their neigh- bours; Peter and Dolly MacLeish (Peter Snell and Seana• McKenna) who become storm stayed at the Dure home. The plot revolves around the effect of the child's disappearance and subsequent death on the couple and their marriage. Roy says rehearsals for Child are "coming along nicely." He explains that rehearsals involve far more than just learning lines. In fact, learning lines is the least part of it, he says. "It's very hard work. A . bad production starts out the same place as a good production. What you're trying to do is have everyone ready at the same time opening night: That's difficult because some actors work more quickly than others. _Some are intellectual and others work from in- stinct," says n-stinct,"says Roy. It helps if you have directed the actors in other productions, says Roy and he has wdrked with each member of the cast of Child at leas-t;•once,., before. "Essentially you are putting out a product on demand. It's a very high energy thing, very exhausting," he con- tinues. Comedies usually go over with audiences better than dramas and that's why most of the plays at Blyth are comedies. But dramas are thrown in for good measure to offer the audience variety, .says Roy. He feels that Child is a good play for him "to go out on" because it's quite ,different from anything else that has been done at the festival. He says he tries not to get sen- timental about the fact. that this is the last play he will direct as artistic director of the festival. Roy doesn't have any definite plans to fulfill once he leaves the Blyth Festival but he does want to stay involved with theatre. "I'm not frustrated enough to give it up yet, he'laughs. He admits that there are times when he really hates the business. "It's a hell of a way to make a living or I should say, not. make a living. The jobs are few and far between," he explains. He admits that it is probably a bad time to be leaving his job . because money is tight in the arts in this country right now and most people are holding onto what they've got. But he is convinced that things will change and he's just going to wait and see what comes up for him. He wouldn't mind some time off anyway, he says, just to go to the lake, relax and do whatever he wants. ,For the 'past five sum- mers he hasn't had too much time for relaxing. When not busy with rehearsals six days a week, he has been busy with administrative work at the festival. "It (the festival) has taken a lot out of me but. it's been nice to see things grow," he says. Not only have the audiences grown at Blyth (at- tendance is up over last year again) but the Memorial Hall, where the plays are staged, has. already received some improvements ' and will be receiving more. Last summer, airconditioning was installed.

This winter, with the help of a grant from the federal and provincial governments, an addition is being built onto the hall to provide backstage • space, dressing rooms, a box office, art gallery and administrative office. At present the festival rents two buildings on the same street as the hall. One building serves as a box office and ad- ministrative office and the other one serves as a workshop where sets are' built and costumes designed and sewn. Roy. says more rehearsal space is badly needed at the festival too. Although he will be moving to Toronto,'Roy says he will probably keep his house in Blyth too. He likes the people and the landscape around Blyth. His wife Anne is involved in theatre too. and ....is spending her summer in Blyth writing plays. Roy studied theatre at York University in Toronto and came to Blyth a year after his graduation.' Directing, rather than acting, was his main interest but he had trouble getting a job. Meanwhile Paul Thompson, founder of Theatre Passe Muraille, had rehearsed the play 1837 in the basement of the Blyth Memorial Hall after hearing about it from Blyth Standard editor, Keith Roulston. Thompson told Roy about •"the hall and Roy contacted Roulston. He figured since no one would give him a job, he would create one for himself. The festival seed was planted and blossomed from there. After' Roy arrived in Blyth, he and Roulston worked hard to form a board of directors, save the hall and get sortie backing by applying .,for grants. The first play performed was Mostly in Clover, written by St. Augustine native Harry Boyle. The people lapped, it up, showing., their huh -ger for theatre of a local nature. . Expanding from simply a summer of plays, the Blyth Centre for the Arts was formed and about ten events are nom_ .staged., throughout..: the fall and winter AndI., $ 1 00 6666 6666 d A n..ne • $1 • OFFWITHTHISCOUPON EDDIE SHACK Mr. PoP Shoppe A CASE OF 30 OZ.

There are visual arts displays, talent shows, musical nights, touring plays, workshops, etc. One event planned for this fall which Roy thinks will be quite good is . the play entitled The Show Hank Williams Never Gave. Janet Amos, the ' ar- tistic director succeeding Roy,' is -trying to set up a tour of The School Show (a play written by Ted Johns about the famous Huron County teachers' strike) for next spring and is even thinking of taking oneor two plays to Toronto. "A lot of people are starting to know that we exist," says Roy. He isn't referring to those people. in the local area but to those in larger centres. "This theatre does have a- ' reasonable reputation in the country and the local aspect is very important. • Hopefully ..it will spawn a few more similar situations in the coun- try," he says. Roy feels that Janet Amos was a good choice for his successor as ar- tistic director at Blyth and claims that the Blyth Festival "will only gel better." James Roy, who helped to launch and develop the Blyth Summer Festival, is leaving this year after his fifth summer as artistic director. He is currently • directing Child, the festival's fourth offering of the season. It is a very serious drama -- and a good pray to go out on" he says.
