Down North is the heart- warming story o1 an only child from the city who is sent to spendthe summer in Cape Breton on his grandfather's farm. Suddenly this lonely self-centred 13 year old becomes the focus of a huge family of aunts, uncles and cousins. He is almost over- whelmed by the 12 hour days and his new extended family. Down North features a large cast ranging in age from six to sixty. The involve- ment of children from the area and the use of mature, actors as the elderly relatives brings reality to the play. A Blyth native, Tom Bailey, 14, will play Guy Deveau, 13. Catherine Battye, 17; Peter Cook, 14; and Craig Roulston," 6, will be seen in important supporting roles. Hugh Webster, a thirty , year veteran of television and theatre, stars as the easy- going grandfather, Gilles Deveau. Janet Amos, the Artistic Director of Blyth has written Down North for her theatre. "I was inspired by the book, My Grandfather's Cape Breton but my imagination went to work and new, dif- ferent, characters sprung up. I've incorporated a tale of old and new love, and some classic family squabbles so the play is very different from the book". Amos states. Marcel Doucet, an Acadian fiddler from Chiticamp, Cape Breton Island where Down North is set, has composed and rejuvenated folk tunes he • will play during ' the performances. Quiet in the Land team, John Ferguson and Kerry Hackett will design sets and costumes respectively. Last year, Ferguson received fur- ther national acclaim for his sets for The Visit at Stratford. Plenty at Toronto Arts Pro- ductions, as well as for Quiet in the Land at Blyth. Down North will run througout July in repertory' with Heads You Lose. • cirafcci,„„tion, FIGURINES 4. 4 FIRST DANCE REGAL LADY 30% OFF Selected figurines First Dance and Regal Lady shown above Several figures to choose from NOW 5O•SO • ea.
