But there is a feeling that you are going to be entertained as you walk from the hayfield parking lot to the barnyard stage to be seated on barn board bleachers or if you are a little on the late side, a bale of hay. The bales have been much in use for their latest production, The Great Farmni. It closed on August 7th after running since July 6th. The production of The Great Farini weil equals the production last year and the year before of The Cavan Blazers. Farini was an evening of excellent entertainment centred around the trials and tribulations of one, William Hunt, a Port Hope man who became renown- ed as The Great Farini, a tightrope artist la the late 1800s. As well he invented the human cannonhaîl act, explored the Kalahari Desert, wrote several books and lived until 1929 when he was 90 years of age. Helen MacDonald tells us that her husband Roy is related to William Hunt as were the Sopers of the Kendal area. The play was well wnuten by the Farini hiographer, Shane Peacock, who also has con- nections to the Kendal ares today. Walkîng into the outdoor '-,ieatre a familiar face appears, th at of Bemnie Martin, playing the part of a clown and, of course, with his accordian. He was ever present throughout the perfor- mance. And a job well done it was. A brassy 'carni' quartet certaînly brought the carnival flavour to the front and added to the momentum of the play. Humour was not lacklag. The high-wire activity by the artist from England was well appreciated especially jumping through a hoop and landing, back on the wire twenty-five feet in the air. We reaily did enjoy the kids in this play especially when they performed their acrobats. One young blonde boy gave it 150 percent with his flip and roîl-over. It was a tireless effort one after another. The story of Farini was well presented from his childhood under the thumb of his father, through the challenges and standards that he set for himself and ail those associated with him. The Great Farini, another ace for the Fourth Line Theatre group. The group presents The Moodie Trafi from August 17 to September 4 being staged in the bush at the back of the farin. The story is based on the diaries of Susanna Moodie and Catharine Parr Traill. Pembroke opposes Iow level waste at Deep Rîiver The Town of Pembroke may have a few words opposing the location of a storage site being established in Deep River for low level waste from the Port Hope, Clarington and Hope Township areas. The federal Task Force has set high hopes on -one of two sites la Deep River being finally approved to take waste from the South. Considemable study has yet to bc undertaken before a final decision is approved. When all the information on the sites for storage has been compiled the public in the Deep River area will be informed of the information. The final decision rests in the outcome of a, municipal referendum to be held in March of 1995. It has been said that area residents didn't sceem that concerned as to the announce- ment that of one of the two Deep River sites could become a storage site for low level nuclear waste. 'Me council of the neigbouring town of Pembroke has passed a resolution opposing the waste being stored in Deep River. What affect that opposition might have is flot known.
