Or did our sober, recession- conscious time, give this show, staged for the benefit of the Canadian Cancer Society, by those two fantastic hosts Edgar Thatcher and Victor Hanson, who call them- selves “Men without Hairs”, a nos- talgic glow and a slower, more mel- low pace? Be that as it may, the overall impression of the show was very entertaining and lively enough to carry the packed audience through two hours of solid and, in some cases inspired, performances. There were three shows at the John Elliott Theatre in Georgetown last week. One evening show each on Friday and Saturday, and a chil- dren’s matinee on Saturday. The shows were produced by Edgar Thatcher, the artistic director was Victor Hanson with Larry Scott as association producer, Paul Thompson as musical director, and Ann Thatcher as stage manager. Brian Hewson was the sound engi- neer and Brian Collier was respon- sible for the lighting. An additional nine people labored in the wings and in the lobby. Linda Donais donated one’ of her reproductions, and “Pictures and Presents” donated a reproduction by Laura Berry. The two pictures, dis- played in the lobby, were raffled off for the benefit of cancer research. After the performances Jack Pignatell (of “Pignatell Insurances and Investments”) invited the audi- ence to meet the performers in the gallery of the Cultural Centre. The coffee and delicious little cakes at these receptions, were donated by “Cakes of Elegance”. I went to the Friday show which started with a delightful jazz-age ballet by the Cheri Lindsay Dancers, 10 young women and one. young man (Kerri Allen, Steve Boyle, Amanda Dolotowicz, Sara Harley, Amy Krankendonk, Amy Leslie, Amy Longworth, Bobbie Marchand, Lindsay Black, Carol Marchand, and Karen Walker). The Cheri Lindsay Dancers had another number after the spear an that was even better than the first This second one was a Tas piece with great costumes and a milky-way effect of fast-moving lights, that was, to my mind and eye, the best production of the evening. In between these two num- bers, we had the privilege of listen- ing to a fine night-club singing act by Lois Fraser and to Doug Reansbury singing and playing (guitar) his own songs. We watched the very young dancer Allison Bobor, of the Halton Hills School of Dancing, in a charming solo dance she had chore- ographed herself. Freddy Wonder, a juggler, magician and comic, also appeared twice, and each time he quickly managed to have the audi- ence follow spellbound his astound- ing tricks and hilarious patter. In other number on the program, Tom Cullen, pastor at the Acton Baptist Church, and his young helpers, activated the wonderful puppets they had designed and made themselves, to great effect, and B.I.G., a band formed by five students from Georgetown District High School (Chris Adamo on drums, Darren Hill on tenor sax, Amy Leask on trumpet, Mark Rattenbury on baritone sax and Ben Zimmer on clarinet) got their deserved share of the applause for their splendidly-spirited playing. Last but not lest, Michael Jackson’s manager (believe it or Not) trotted onto the stage, in lieu of the singer, whose immediate arrival had been the running gag of the evening. For the finale, all the performers filled the stage and their emotional farewell was a fitting end to an evening of happy laughter and shared pleasures. Dr. Cook’s Garden ready to bloom Dr. Cook’s Garden, a suspense- ful thriller by Ira Leaven, will open at the John Elliott Theatre in Georgetown this Friday. Georgetown and District High School students have been invited to the dress rehearsal today (Wednesday). They will be asked by director, Neville Worship, not to disclose the plot of the play and especially the ending, for fear of spoiling the entertainment of future audiences. All ticket holders are requested to exercise the same restraint when recommending the play to their friends, family and work mates. This Georgetown Little Theatre production runs February 19, 20 and 24 through 27. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Tickets are $8 and $10 and are still available for most shows.
