It has been quite a season for the Borelians. (see story for detalls) scenes helping with sets, costumes, make-up, sound or lighting, in the business aspects of fund-raising, ticket sales or advertising, in performance roles (both novice and experienced ac- tors of all ages are always welcome at auditions) or as members of the audience, any theatre group's most important asset. Les Parkes, well-known local artist and primary set designer for the group, remains on the board as past-chairperson. The role of secretary will be filled by Sherri Todd, a newcomer to the group with many talents and skills to offer. Another new board member, Gillian Hardy, has taken on the demanding post of treasurer. Other board members include Rob Monahan, Jackie Danter, Dave Sparling and San- dra James-Mitchell who will be in charge of publicity. The new season of plays has been designed to build on the dramatic successes of last season's 'Jitters' and "Nobody Loves A Dragon' which won, aniong many others, the "Elsie" award for best play in the all- Ontario drama competition in North Bay last May. September 22, 23 and 24th are the dates for "Moments I1,"' a col- lection of scenes from famous sikkEns Cetol 1 and Cetol 23 plays such as "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?' Little Shop of Horrors' and '"Educating Rita" among others. This production had been set for a date last May but had to be postponed in order for the group to devote its energies towards the mounting of "Nobody Loves a Dragon" in the provincial competition. The highly-talented John H. Foote, who directed last season's comic smash hit, "Jitters,"' returns this season to direct "Agnes of God," a fantasy- drama. The Town Hall will be the venue for this intriguing play ear- ly in December. The Borelians major produc- tion of the season, "Dracula," also directed by John Foote, is sure to delight large audiences in late February. Both "Agnes of Ged" and "Dracula" will be ad- judicated by a representative of ACT-CO (Association of Com- munity Theatres - Central On- tario) in hopes of repeating last season's outstanding recognition of the achievements of Port Perry's own talented, innovative and entertaining theatre troupe.
