Professional Arts Building 99 Sinclair Ave., Suite 210 Georgetown (905) 873-6642 New technology developed in the past several years can help most people with hearing loss to achieve improved communication. Todays hearing instruments have evo lved from s imple dev ices to remarkably sophisticated and technologically advanced personal hearing computers. In just the last few years, more advances in hearing aid techno logy have been made than throughout history. In many hearing aids, there are no longer knobs or controls, because the instruments automatically adjust loudness. Some hearing aids are programmed so that they require only the push of a button either on the hearing aid or on a wireless remote control to switch to different listening situations and provide balanced sound in the office, at home, on the telephone, or at a concert. Digital and digitally programmab le hearing aids have been introduced that amplify signals in new ways and make the benefits of hearing aids even more customized. Many hearing aids are v i r tua l ly computers w i th f lex ib le and sophisticated processors that analyze and respond to specific sounds. Some advanced hearing instruments process sound more than a million times per second. To f ind out more about these lates t advancements call....

Many patients who have found difficulty with retention or comfortably wearing dentures in the past have now found the benefits of new materials and technology. Cast metals bases, implants, magnets, myloc retention systems and soft liner inserts are providing excellent results for many whos past experience was poor. Also, implants dentures are available. Your dentures and tissues should be checked annually. Damage to the oral tissues can take place without your being aware of it. Early detection and elimination of tissue inflammation is important to minimize shrinking of the supporting bone. Remember, ill-fitting dentures could lead to many other health problems.

GLTs Drinking Alone opened Thursday night at John Elliott Theatre, and though the play does feature instances of depression and loneli- ness, overall, the comedy clearly causes the audience to be anything but depressed. The play centres around Joe Todd, a some- what introverted middle-age bachelor who receives a surprise call from his estranged father Ivan, after several years separation, saying hes dropping by for a visit. Joes sister Carrie is also asked to join the reunion, an event which neither children are looking forward to at all. Joes life has been totally mediocre, so to impress his father, he hires an escort service to send a girl over, Renee, whom he asks to pose as his fiancOne small problem, this is the very first assignment for Renee, and not only is she nervous, but she has a problem with talking too much. When Ivan and his wife Phyllis arrive, Renee spins such a tale about her relationship with Joe that she not only convinces Ivan that his son has made the perfect choice, but Ivan actually likes her a trait hes not usually known for. GLT has a winning combination here the cast is spectacular, with all actors meshing well together, making for a perfect casting. Julia Guthrie is brilliant as the overly talka- tive Renee, as she nervously tackles the role of being Joes fiancfter knowing him for less than 30 minutes. Whenever she is onstage, Guthrie holds the audience securely in the palm of her hand with this part. Paul dEntremont is equally hilarious as the deadpan Joe, as he tolerates the verbal diarrhea that Renee has a habit of spewing forth, while she ingeniously invents their relationship on the fly, right down to the romantic details of their so-called engagement. Both Guthrie and dEntremont mesh well together, and are a credit to the play. Kerry Wright plays Joes sister Carrie, a sar- castic successful news anchor with the local television station. Wright has the characters aloof and sarcastic manner down to a science, most of the time with a beer bottle in hand. Her dialogue is sometimes a bit earthy, an aspect of the play that adds to her character. Ken Smith is the perfect Ivan, with his con- descending manner and call a spade a spade dialogue. Whether hes in an argumentative scene, or a tender daddy-daughter scenario, Smith plays his character to the max, and in doing so, contributes immensely to the show. In one scene, Smith and Wright command the stage, as Carrie finally comes to the realization her father wasnt quite the evil man shed paint- ed him to be for decades. The scene is magical, without a dry eye in the audience. Playing Ivans wife Phyllis is Barbara Stasiw, who is another perfect fit for her character. Stasiw portrays her character as a woman who knows more than she lets on. The set is a work of art and lighting cues are smooth and seamless. The play runs like a well- oiled machine, to the point where it seems like Act One is finished long before its due, but is an hour long. With Drinking Alone, GLT certainly has a winner. The play is very funny, yet still man- ages to make a social comment. The audience laughs, the audience cries, yet enjoys doing both. The play continues its run next week. Drinking Alone is a winner TED BROWN Staff Writer On Saturday, February 16, the Georgetown Bach Chorale will provide a perfect antidote to the winter doldrums an evening of Early Music performed in the charming setting of St. Albans Anglican Church in Glen Williams. The concerts selections range from the majesty of Bruckner (including his beautiful set- ting of Locus Iste) to the charm of English Madrigals. Along the way, enjoy Handels Zadok the Priest and Bachs stirring Chaconne, which fea- tures six voices from the Chorale accompanied by the incomparable Linda Melsted on violin. Many will recognize Melsted as a longtime member of the Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra of Toronto and have long admired the virtuosity and passion of her playing. Among the English songs the Chorale will offer is Ye Shepherds Tell Me by Joseph Mazzinghi. The song inspired painter John Singer Sargent to create his painting Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose. The painting in turn inspired a book for children by noted author Hugh Brewster, a former resident of Georgetown. His book, also named Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose, was nominated for the 2007 Governor Generals Literary Award and is enjoyed by children and adults alike for its telling of the story of Sargents painting by the lit- tle girl who was his model. Hugh Brewster will be on hand after the con- cert to sign copies of his book at St. Albans House (next door to the church). The concert begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 and are available at Foodstuffs and The Freckled Lion in downtown Georgetown, or at the door. Books for the signing will be provided by the Freckled Lion. Please note: Tickets are still available for the Two Pianos concert and reception on March 14 and 15 and for the Chorales performance of Mozarts Requiem on April 26. Both are available at Foodstuffs and The Freckled Lion.
