"Letter From Wingfield Farm," a
hilarious one-man play, starring actor, Rod
Beattie is being performed at the Blyth
Memorial Hall on Saturday, Sept. 27 at 8
p.m.
This oomedy shows us all the fun and
foibles of farm living. The laughs begin
when a corporate executive decides he can
find the simple, unhurried pace he craved m
a country setting. He mistakenly believes he
is going to lead an uncomplicated life as a
gentlemen farmer. As the realities of rural
life unfold, it quickly becomes apparent to
him that the "simple" life is not so simple.
This story is chock full of characters that
are familiar to all of us. They are all por-
trayed with great skill by Rod Beattie,
whose incredible versatility allows him to
create a series of wonderful scenes and
encounters.
The play has had a very popular run
throughout southwestern Ontario for the
past two years, often with repeat
engagements, and has had extended -runs in
London and Grand Bend.
"A Letter From Wingfield Farm" is
bound to tickle your funny -bone and wear
out your knee from slapping. Tickets are $10
for this event.
Letter From Wingield Farm is the first in
Blyth Festival's adult fall/spring series, so
this will be your last chance to purchase
money -saving maxi -packages which cost
$25 for four events, including Valdy,
classical pianist, Anton Kuerti, and the

"Music, Masks and Mornents"at Blyth
The Blyth Visual Arts Committee is pleas-
ed to present an exhibition of works entitled,
Music, Masks and Moments" by local ar-
tist Mona Istrati-Mulhern. The show will run
Sept. 27 through Oct. 31, in the Blyth
Festival Art Gallery.
Mona Istrati-Mulhern is a familiar figure
on the Huron County arts scene. She is a well
known Goderich artist, whose work has
been exhibited throughout Ontario.
Her studio, which she named "Serren-
wood", provides a display area for her own
work and Mona also offers it as a showcase
for other local artisans. Always an active
participant in community art affairs, Mona
has been a teacher of visual arts to every
age group.
In the show "Music, Masks, and
Moments" the artist creates in watercolor,
reflections of nature, interpretations, of the
symbolic nature of masks; and also shows
the influence of music as it enhances the im-
agery and symbolism. All these elements
come together to provide a delightful ex-
perience, touched with moments of fantasy.
The official opening is on Saturday, Sept.
27 at 7 p.m. The public is invited to attend, to
see the exhibit and meet the artist.
The Festival Gallery will remain open
weekdays through to October 17th from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m., and any inquiries during
business hours may go to the Blyth Festival
administration office (1st building south 'of
Blyth Memorial Hall after that date).

Premenstrual syndrome
is topic at free workshop
On Wednesday Oct. 8, from 7-10 pm, the
Women l3eing Well Project will be sponsor-
ing a free Education Workshop at the Clin-
ton Town Hall on Premenstrual Syndrome.
The speaker for the evening will be Dr.
J.C. Henderson who has established a PMS
Centre in Mississauga to evaluate and treat
women who suffer with PMS and to carry
out research in regard to this disorder.
It is also their purpose along with ours at
Women Being Well/Women Today to in-
crease awareness of PMS as a physical
rather than psychological *order.
If you have been affected by such symp-
toms as headaches, bloating, irritability,
food cravings, depression, forgetfulness or
sinus problems you may find some answers
at this workshop. Dr. Henderson will speak
for approximately one and a half hours with
time for questions following his
presentation.
If you are interested in registering for this
free workshop or have any further questions
please call Marg Crane at Women Today
