relations you’re going to have to
break down the barrier somehow.”
Mr. Whitmore said that while
people talk about “our Hall” they
should remember that if not for the
Festival the hall might not be there
at all today.
Ms. Kaszas said the theatre has
tried to be integrated by presenting
local plays of local interest into the
community but there will always be
some people who won’t want to see
theatre and that’s their right.”
“We will always be confronted
with some of this no matter how
hard we work,” Reeve Albert
Wasson said. Earlier he had prais
ed the co-operation between the
village and the Festival and said he
was happy with the success story of
the Festival.
Later in the evening the council
considered the Festival’s request
for a grant of $1,500, the same as
last year.
“For the amount of revenue the
Festival puts into Blyth we should
keep the grant at least the same,”
Councillor Brown said.
