Play looks
at drug abuse
A young, single career womari, a. middle-
aged housewife whose children have grown
ups and a young mother of six sit in a waiting
room at their doctor's office with one thing
in common—as women they're all victims of
the Health • care system and the phar-
maceutical industry. •
The scene comes from the play, Side Ef-
fects which is returning to Blyth Memorial
Hall on Oct. 19 at 8:30 p.m.
Performed 'by 'a cast of five 'talented and
versatile women, the play portrays the
situations of both Canadian and third world
women. It visits the offices of the president
of a multinational pharmaceutical com-
pany, the doctor's office, the homes of
various Canadian women and the villages 'of
Bangladeshi ,
Mitzi House plays Granny, an old healer
woman who's been around "since this dance
has been going.on.",She adds humor and
wisdomto the chilling facts about real life
stories of women abused by .drug industries
and doctors.
The' rest of the cast including.' Josee
Beaulieu, Heather Esdon, Laurie Fyffe and
Mary Burns play a variety of characters.
They tell the sad story of Mary Ann, a nurse
who becomes addicted to tranquillizers and
ultimately attempts suicide before beginn-
ing the long, hard process or withdrawal
from valium.
We meet a middle-aged housewife suffer-
ing.from empty -nest syndrome and a young
career woman who learns she has a. rare
form of cancer because her mother, during
pregnancy, took DES, a wonder druglvhich
was supposed to prevent miscarriage.
We also meet insensitive doctors who
regare.their women patients as childish, ig-
norant hypochondriacs. Writing a prescrip-
tion seems to be their answer for every ill.
And, we meet C.B.,, the ruthless, profit -
hungry president 'of Drugs For All, a
multinational pharmaceutical corporation,
who targets women's "health" around the
'world as the source of his.profits.
Side Effects, which is touring Canada this
year as a co -production of Women's Health
Interaction and the Great Canadian Theatre
Company, aims to encourage women to
start questioning, the kinds of drugs they
take and become more knowledgeable about
their health. It is brought to Blyth through
the co-sponsorship of Women Today and. the
Ontario Arts Council.
