THE HERALD Wednoda April 24 ll Theatre Lunch Houra scrumptious repast ByJOHNSOMMER Herald Special Lunch Hour a comedy by the American writer Jean Kerr has opened at the John Elliott Theatre on Church Street in Georgetown where it will have another four performances on April 25 and 27 at m each evening I went to it last week and I had a good time The play was first performed in November in New York The leads in it were and Sam Waterston and the director was Mike These are big names but the play itself is fluff and quite dated 11 years later Relationships bet ween men and women have become rather more serious in the meantime and also more to fix Yet one can argue that the play has some deeper undercurrents Oliver learns to assert himself and how regain the respect of his intelligent wisecracking wife and Carrie learns how to control of a much older husbano by finding out that he is a bit of a twit One leaves the theatre with the satisfying feeling that in days to come Oliver and Came will get a lot of each others company while their partners be wondering how it happened the former ly so different pecking order Is now reversed The Georgetown Little Theatre production is welldirected by Ron Hill the usual large produc staff has given the produc tion a very handsome look and some fine light effects After some tense moments the actors got into the swing and the play flowed on smoothly to it in evitable ending Oliver Vreck is played very by Steve an actor I never saw before on stage but hope to see again in other plays Here is a romantic lead the Georgetown Little Theatre greatly missed in the past I can think of all kinds of plays I would like to see him in Maybe tat Yes I We Are Open MOTHERS DAY SUNDAY MAY So Bring Mom In For A Speca Treat 8737402 atm niMiSLi

the part but she is such an at Globes Norma Roman wins Thea Award for costumes On April 13 a large group of Georgetown Globe Production members were in attendance at the annual awards dinner for the

Anne being nominated for Best Set Design Guys and Dolls was also nominated for Best Overall Musical given to a pro in all aspects are deemed to be of the highest Halton Hills is proud to have groups such as Globe Produc tions working hard to provide quality entertainment at reasonable prices When they are singled out for their efforts as hey were it only serves to en them to achieve even standards of excellence in he future tractive warmhearted creature that I didnt care after a while She tinned the tired old play into a delicious romp She Is like a child that s turning around and around and around in front of a mirror wanting to be petted Peter Richards plays Peter Sachs sufficiently smooth and fatuous David Brock as Leo Simpson plays a bit too femmate for my taste He has good looks and a good figure but those mincing little steps are not exactly as required for this role of a perhaps bisexual actor This is the last play of the season for the Georgetown Little Theatre a great amount of work and care has been put into it and I suggest that you go and see It KING SUBMARINE 87751778 Norma Roman ATTENTION SENIOR CITIZENS On Thursday May 9th 1991 the Lions Club of
