Playhouse ,presents 'The Boyfriend'
This week, the Huron Country
Playhouse in Grand Bend,
presents its third musical of the
1976 season. Sandy Wilson's
THE BOYFRIEND was a hit when
it opened in London,
and later won similar enthusiastic
reaction on Broadway in 1954.
; It is a witty, stylish cartoon of
the 20's. The Boyfriend takes
place on the French Riviera,
where Polly, a millionaire's
daughter, is attending Mme.
Dubonnet's fashionable finishing
school. She meets and falls in
love with Tony, a delivery boy,
who later turns out to be the
wealthy son of Lord Brockhurst.
To hold his interest, Polly pre-
tends that she's a working girl,
and endless confusion follows.
Meanwhile, Polly's father stops
at the school for a brief visit
and rediscovers his wartime
sweetheart, Mme, Dubonnet.
After all the misunderstanding
are sorted out, the couples are
reunited for the inevitable happy
Tomatoe
end rot
At this time of year we see
many examples of blossom end
rot on tomatoes. It is not a
disease but a disorder usually
caused by a calcium deficiency,
a lack of water at some point
during the growing season, or
a combination of the two.
Blossom end rot shows us as
a dark area with a rotted appea-
rance on the end of the tomato
away from the stem, says Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and Food
horticulturist J. K. Hughes.
The tomatoes lose their firmness
and shape.
When the plant is experiencing
water stress, the nutrient calcium
is not able to move freely to the
extreme parts of the fruit and a
deficiency occurs, this causes
the cells to break down and rot
sets in.
To prevent blossom end rot,
water the plants once a week
when there is no rain. Make sure
they are well mulched and try
to keep the calcium levels up in
the soil. The application of a
foliar spray may help correct
a calcium deficiency, although
this has not yet been proven to be
a conclusive remedy.
Once blossom end rot has set
in, there is nothing you can do
about it. Mr. Hughes recom-
mends you discard the rotten
tomatoes, either in the compost
heap or the garbage.
ending. The Boyfriend is a good-
humoured, tuneful and affection-
ate tribute to the innocence and
high spirits of the Charleston,
Cloche hat and short skirt days.
Hit songs from this show include
"I could be happy with you
"Won't you Charleston with me"
and "It's never too late to fall
in Love"
' Starring in this week's Play-
house production is Jeanne
Beauvais, in the role of Mme
Debonnet. Miss Beauvais, who
recreated this role in the
latest Broadway revival of The
Boyfriend, also played Mme.
Dubonnet at New York's Cherry
Lame Theatre for a two-year run,
and has performed in several
other BOYFRIEND productions in
Illinois and Puerto Rico. She is,
perhaps, best known to Playhouse
audiences for her portrayal of
Dolly Levi, in last year's smash
hit Hello Dolly.
Irma La Douce cast members
