This past week 19 girls took part in the Huron Country Playhouse Childrens Theatre School. The four year old program is run by Carl Zvonkin is an introduction to theatre for the children that takes them right back to the basics, and Friday' they will be involved in a performance which will showcase what they have learned over the past week. Stage directions, learning a role, staying in character, mime, dance, and voice training are some of the activities that Zvonkin teaches in the portable classroom at the thea- tre. "We try to teach the activities through a game format," says Zvonkin, "there are many, many theatre games that we use to make learning fun, and it is important that it remain fun." A teacher himself for the past 25 years, Zvonkin helped out as a vol- unteer in past years before he be- came the instructor. Zvonkin, who sees changes ahead for the pro- gram, would like to see a real chil- dren's theatre which would operate monthly_ instead of weekly ses- sions, and accommodate a larger number of children. However, The Huron Country Playhouse Children's Theatre program held their end of the week show, on Friday, for the 19 participants. Here Elizabeth Poli on the left, Lisa Volchoff, kneeling, Melissa Bryan Pulham, and Katrina Michielsen on the right, rehearse for their skit entitled Ooga Booga Island. Zvonkin says that with all the reno- arations • being done at the theatre, .the changes will occur gradually over the next few years. Many of Zvonkin's students are back for their second or third yeat, like Stephanie Kuhn, of London, who is back at the theatre school for her third year. "I really enjoy being on camera when Carl films us. All the lessons helped me to be less nervous on stage and helped me to get a role in the HCP's pro - \duction of Oliver." Kathy Keskin- en, of Exeter, is there for her first time this year, when asked what she•had learned through the week she replied, "I learned how to use my diaphragm, and lots of other things I have never done before." Keskinen says she would like to pursue acting, and may come back again next year. Zvonkin would like to change the format of the program slightly for the week of August 23 to the 27. Instead of having only older stu- dents, Zvonkin would like to incor- porate 10 and 11 year olds as well. Friday's performance for the par- ents involved it dance sequence, a skit, and two songs. "A Whole New World", and "William Tell" which are sung by the entire company. Not only were the girls able to make new .friends, and learn more about each other, but they were able to show off some of their tal- ent, and learn some new skills. As Melissa Bryan -Pulham said, "it was ,a lot of fun, I learned a lot about theatre and look forward to learn- ing more." Big bloomers This Crown Tiger Lily of Eric Heywood, of Exeter, reached an incredible seven feet six inches. Heywood says that the five year old plant had 114 blooms in all, and all three stems have come from the same bulb.
