Energy ran high as the "audience was led through two original pieces by Thornhill students, and Anton Chekov's one act farce “The Proposal". Greg Heckel as Caesar, and Chris Bauer, the war- mongering Gideon, along with John Lane as the money-hungry Crassus Cohen, provided a resistant cong egation for the crus ing Saviour, played by Babiak himself. CATCH 'I'I'IE DA'I'SIIN SPIRIT. The interesting aspect of this piece was the lack of cynicism in the message it carried. ‘Decline Plus Fall’ by Grade 11 student Paul Babiak was a surprising attempt to discover some modern truths in the society of Jesus Christ. Babiak, competently and at times eloquently rested his idealism and hope in the love of the God who gave his son to the world. The appearance of such a message and the general acceptance of the young audience that it was worth hearing seemed to indicate a new emerging attitude toward the confusions of the world. By Kathy Wynne The idealistic, the academic and the ridiculous received equal billing at Thornhill Secondary School last week.

The second flaw in the over-all performance oc- curred as the players rushed to do their piece and pass the action along to the next person. The resulting im- pression was often one of a crew of fierce individuals acting out separate roles regardless of their comrades. Again, the 'writing was excellent and the content absorbing. In this piece there was no question that the individual reigned supreme. Paul Babiak as Benedick, Marianne Eberhard as Beatrice and P.J. Elliott as Dogberry were among the strongest. One problem common to all three episodes was the colored foot lights, which in many instances simply created irritating shadows. During the introduction of the second play they ob- scured the vision of the audience completely. presentation did not quite reach the quality of the writing. Warrior Gideon, played ‘by Chris Bauer. confronts Jesus Christ. Paul Babiak, with the power of violence in the Choobukov, the landowner and hopeful father-in-law, was played by Jeff Pearlman. Paul Babiak, again forceful, was the weak and sickly suitor Lomov, and Joy Malbon was the an- tagonistic and prancing Natalia. The high pitch of Chekov’s farce “The Proposal", in- creased the mood of the actors. (Claudio, played by Chris Bauer got frequent and well- deserved bursts of laughter for his impassioned delivery. Bauer is one of the German exchange students at Thornhill and his mastery of the English inflections and pronunciations was impressive and acknowledged by the audience.) But the action was too fast and at times the crisp edges needed on the stage were missing. Speeches began coherently but trailed off rapidly in a rush of gesticulations and im- patience to be through. The plot is of little or no importance, it is the build up of absurdity that is the point, and that Was lost in the fury of mannerisms and repeated gestures meant to establish eccentric characters and attitudes. &Phone: 884-110Tufi The clowning, by the end 10097 Yonge Street Richmond Hill Featuring Live Entertainment DOC SAVAGE April 14th to 19th 169 Yonge St. North, Richmond Hill, Ont.

Outstanding act But, in an evening of great characterisations, probably the most outstanding was that of Louise Whitney. Madge Scott, for instance, is the very epitome of the harrassed northern mother, a performance matched in every way by her stage husband played by Brian Stainer. There are no stars in this large cast show. But there is a range of outstanding performances, revealing the depth of talent in the Curtain Club. Regrettably there are too many performers to mention by name.

It also did the same for Tom Courtenay when he succeeded Finney in the role. I saw the play with Finney in the lead and it was memorable theatre in the best London tradition. ‘ Not comparable Celebration cannot be compared to Billy Liar. It is as though the playwrights merely mirrored a little slice of northern English life and captured the dialogue, actions and reactions of that culture. It is as though the playwrights are developing a series of northern English plays, much as Neil Simon has developed a string of comedies, centred in New York brownstones. There is no plot to follow, nor mystery to unravel. But the English charac- ters are much more satisfying than Simon’s wisecracking New Yorkers in the club‘s last play, The Gingerbread Lady.
