Leading this popular group is Musical Director Thomas Millar. Tom has enjoyed many hit successes with the Scugog Choral Society and other organizations within the region since he and his wife, Catherine, moved here from Scotland twenty years ago to open his medical practice. During their early years, the Town Hall was in the throes of being restored for purposes of providing the area with a facility for the promotion of the Arts. Tom, who holds ayPerformance Degree in piano, volunteered, arranged, and performed solo piano concerts (and concerts with guest artists,) to raise thousands of dollars towards Town Hall 1873. Tom and Catherine joined the Scugog Choral Society and enjoyed several years on the stage performing with the chorus and as leads. Then in 1984, Tom assumed the reins of Musical Director of the group. From 1985, the Society's 10th anniversary, to the present day the organization has performed up to two major productions per year, with Tom musically Durham Region and outlying areas as well enjoy top quality musical entertainment surpassed only by professional théatre. Tom and Catherine also devote a great deal of their time and energy to the children's group they founded, "Millar Lights." Their only pay is the sincere appreciation of the children, their families and the audiences they delight. In recognition of their efforts towards youth theatre in Ontario, they were the recipients of a special ACTCO Adjudicator's Award in the Spring of 1991. In the Spring of 1992, Tom and Catherine were honored with a Lescarbot Award, a "Cultural Volunteer and Benefactor Recognition Program" sponsored by the Government of Canada, Department of Communications. Also in the Spring of 1992, Tom won a Thea Award by ACTCO of Best Musical Director for "Hello Dolly" (performed by the Scugog Choral Society.) The Choral Society attracts an average.of 35 members from the area. Under Tom's leadership the members have been coached to reach their musical potential in addition to having a really good time with Tom's incredible sense of humor. Tom chose an Operetta for this year's production so that the singing g most. Audi from bilities of the Scugog Choral VES! Society could be demonstrated. "An operetta is really a mini- opera usually sung in the language of the country in which it is performed. The story line is usually lighter than an Opera or a Musical. The story is in the music, and the music is the most important part of the production, often the story is not so complex. In comparison, the music and the story play more or less an equal part in a Musical." Audiences can expect some beautiful melodic harmonies with a Vienese flavour. "The Gipsy Princess" is artistically directed by Virginia Reh (possible through Theatre Ontario's Community Theatre training program-funded by the Ontario Arts Council and the Ministry of Culture and Communication) and produced by Jean Kennedy. Catherine Millar stars as Sylva, other lead performers are Dan Kapp, Marrion Johnson, Terry Paul, Rick Huntington, Pam Kennedy and Rick DeJong. Featuring Don Smith, Roy Haina and cameo roles by Alf Kennedy and Richard Drew. Reserved "seating tickets are available at Irwin Smith Music, 305 Queen St. Port Perry.
