Zurich Citizens News, 1976-08-25, Page 7MAIN STREET LOOKED LIKE THIS for a long time, but thanks to all the rain we have had this summer the dust never seemed too unbearable. Bricks sat piled along the street and no one was quite sure just how they would look when completed. Photo by T. Stover Zurich Citizens News, August 25, 1976 -Page 7 Anne of Green Gables returns to Playhouse "Anne of Green Gables" re- opens at the Huron Country Playhouse this week. Tickets are still available for most perform- ances, the box office reports. The show returns to the Play- house after a 12 -performance tour made possible, in part, by a wintario grant from the Ontario Ministry of Culture and. Re- creation. Nearly 3,000 people saw "Anne" during its first week at the Playhouse. All attendance records were broken at the Grand Bend theatre, including those set just two weeks before with another hit of the season, "The Boyfriend". For the first time ever, a Playhouse production is being held -over for a full 3 -week run. In all, "Anne" will play more than 30 performances. On the road, the show has also been playing to capacity crowds, and to frequent standing ovations. Without a doubt, "Anne of Green Gables" is Canada's perennial favourite. The Playhouse production of "Anne" isin better shape than ever, according to director Don Fleckser. The company of 40, including the eleven members of the London Symphony who form the orchestra for the show, are all well -seasoned after playing on so many different stages. The touring locations have included Lion's Head, Goderich, Mea - ford, Sarnia, Owen Sound and Seaforth. Performance schedule for the next two weeks is Wednes- day to Saturday evenings at 8:30 with discount matinees Wed- nesdays at 2:00 and Saturdays at 4:00. Information and reser- vations 238-8451.

The bricks have all been laid and vibrated into place, the paving is finished and council has managed to get the trees into their sports between the bricks. Zurich's main street is now one very good-looking one. Photo by McKinley WELCOME P� oo TO THE We hope you 'enjoy your visit to our Community! ROBERT F.
