An expanded season and an
exchange program with Victoria
Playhouse, Petrolia will be part of
the plans for the 1977 season of
the Blyth Summer Festival, the
annual meeting of the board of
directors was told Thursday
night.
Jim Schaefer, associate
director of the Festival reported
for Artistic Directory James Roy
who is presently working in
England that at present plans call
for four productions to be
presented in Blyth and two to be
taken to the Petrolia Theatre on
tour midway through the season.
In exchange, the Petrolia group
will send two of its productions to
Blyth for two weeks.
Mr. Schaefers said that the four
plays will likely be announced
soon from among a group of five
now under consideration. Most of
these are n ew plays which will be
presented in Blyth from the first
time anywhere this summer.
It was announced that the
Canada Council has approved a
$5000 grant to the Festival this
year. In the letter announcing the
grant, David Peacock head of the
Theatre Section of the Council
said"Council noted the
community involvement with the
company and the excitement that
has been generated by the work
not only within the region, but
also , amongst theatre
professionals who have had a
chance to see what you are
doing."
At the meeting Keith Roulston,
Blyth publisher was re-elected to
the post of president. Mrs.
Phylis Street of Blyth was named
vice-president. Paul Ross, a
Clinton lawyer was named
treasurer and Mrs. Susan
Howson of Blyth was named
secretary.
The financial report showed a
small deficit caused by expensive
renovations to Memorial Hall
which were made last year. It was
also noted that due to increased
costs, local fundraising was going
to have to be much higher this
year.
