explained he was making the announce-
ment on behalf of Communications
Minister Flora MacDonald, as the grant
will be received through the Department
of Communication's Cultural Initiatives
Program.
This contribution will help to defray the
estimated $1.8 million cost of ini-
provements and expansion to the Blyth
Memorial Hall. The improvements will in-
clude enlarging the backstage area, raised
lighting positions, an adequate loading
facility, larger dressing rooms and an ex-
panded box-office area.
Expansion Work to be carried out will
allow for larger production workshops,
more rehearsal space, working areas for
playwrights and space for small meetings
and seminars.
In a press release, the festival's artistic
director, Katherine Kaszas, noted that
with the donation, they will be able to
begin construction and enter in to Stage 1
of their renovations.
She stated, "The overwhelming support
of our cotnlstunity in terms of letters of en-
dorsement as well as financial contribu-
tions has been echoed by the federal
government. In less than two months, over
$236,000 has been raised from hundreds of
individuals for our festival's building
capital campaign.
"I want to thank Murray Cardiff for his
dedication to cultural activities in this
area and his outstanding support of the
Blyth Festival since its inception nearly 15
years ago. He and his staff have worked
diligently on behalf of this project."
With an eye to the future, general
manager for the theatre, Joel Harris,
stated, "The timing of this announcement
is very critical to our construction
schedule. Our $1.8 million goal is only a
million dollars away and we expect the
provincial government will be announcing
its contribution to this project shortly, as
well as the many corporations and founda-
tions we have approached."
Ironically, the announcement was made
during a Murder Mystery Dinner fund
raising event for the festival. Marian
Doucette, the president of the board, com-
mented, "More than one mystery was
unveiled tonight."
