This is the first time the Festival has shown a deficit since 1984. Thomas said, "the entire loss on the season is accounted for by a shortfall of five percent in ticket sales with each percent point in 1991 equivalent to $275,000 in box office revenue. Although we pre- sented a very strong season, which was well received by both our audi- ence and the critics, the economy, the 25 - 30 percent decline of tour- ism in Southwestern Ontario, and the imps ct of the Goods and Servic- es tax all contributed to a reduced number of admissions. We look forward to an improving economy as we enter our Fortieth Season at the Stratford Festival." i Wedding T=lowe Ns Jo -Anne Dinney Call us... we are the professionals COUNTRY flowfRS ;h•ce-t • ureter • 235-2350 0 Rejoice and be happy!
