Also s • ra painting of most everything 482-3563 BY PATRICK RAE="One Night Stand," Theatre Circle's cur- rent stage production, while a Welt rough around the edges, is none -the -less engross- ing( and provides an enjoyable evening's entertainment. The play, which played last Thurdsday, Friday and Saturday night, on the stage at Blyth, is the group's latest ef- fort to keep live theatre alive during the cultually-bleak winter months.' Set.. in Toronto the play centres on the misadventures of a city -girl, who picks up a stranger in an unfamiliar bar and brings him home on a whim. She chooses this course, after being left alone on her birth- day by both her married boyfriend and her female roomate. Linda Bolen plays Daisy, the restless young lady, while Jeff Christianson por- trays Rafe, her choice for a "One Night Stand". Both are experienced actors. Winnipeg native Bolen rose from community theatre work to some parts m professional theatres and television. Christian comes from an ar- my family, was born in Europe and has had shots on such quality tevlevision shows as SCTV and Seeing Things. - Christensen plays his role of the psycopathic drifter to perfection. Bolen is also good in a tough role, which demands r to play a scene for laughs one second and swith to intense drama the next. The constant transitions from 'side - slapper to nail -biter are one of the play's few shortcomings. The audience just begins to get involved in the suspense as they slow- ly learn of Cristensen's true warped nature, when they are practically hit in the face with a pie. The play itself is at fault, not the cast, nor novice director Keith Roulston, who has done a splendid job with the staging of the play. Under Roulston's control this produc- tion could udoubtedly find some direction and improve the flow problem. One Night Stand played in Blyth last week with this type of production,' but it is..well- designed at sets the atmosphere adequate- ly; The audience at the Thursday night per- formance was extremely receptive„ to the play, following the mood changes with delight and thouroughly enjoying the com- edic moments. Theatre Circle has hit on an extremely. workable concept, in providing winter theatre to this area, and is providing quality theatre, for those that can't get enough of the stage during the summer. months. The group definately rates a look-see from any The set is not elaborate, as is expected serious theatre buff. THEATRE REVIEW On the, up side, the play's funny moments are truely hilarious and Christensen shows what a talented actor can do with a really meaty role. Bolens telephone conversations with unseen callers at times rival Bob Newhart's phone routines, when the dry comic is in top force. Don Harran is MC of official opening at Stratford It will be a day of dedication and celebra- tion as the Stratford Festival officially opens the new additions to its Festival and Avon Theatres on Saturday, Mar. 23. The $�, million Capital Additions Program (made possible by matching grants of $2 million from the federal and provincial governments) began just over a year ago and was completed on time and within budget. It includes pew rehearsal, workshop and studio space in both theatres that enable the Festival to consolidate all its activities within its own buildings. Of the Festival's $2 million share of the construction budget_ more than $1.4 million already has been raised. Weather perrnitting, the official opening ceremonies for the new additions will com- mence at 11 a.m. on the new terrace of the Festival Theatre with acclaimed actor,' writer and television personality Don Har- ron acting as Master of Ceremonies.

Subsidy reduced forroad program 5 YEARS AGO Huron County will have to come up with an additional $95,000 to spend on roads in 1980, an increase of eight per cent over last year. In the budget presented to county council last Thursday, it was noted that pro- posed expenditures actually are up only 6.7 per cent, a total increase of $219,000. However the Ministry of Transportation and Communications has reduced its subsidy by $33,000 this year, meaning more of the money must be raised through the county levy. 4— The reverend Peter.
