Canadian play to be among theatre's five A work by Canadian playwright, Warren Graves, will be among five plays to be presented by Richmond Hill Curtain Club in 1977-78. Graves’ play, The Mumberley Inheritance, will be the club's final offering of the season, running from May 26 to June 10. Actually it is a play- within-a-play and opens with two critics who become so involved in the production, they ultimately cannot distinguish fact from fiction. Described as “a good- time melodrama in the tradition of East Lynne, it was first produced at Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre in 1971. C-lo â€" THE LIBERAL. Wednesday. August 17. 1977 Review The real Inspector Hound is an ambitious attempt by the Summer Theatre WorkshOp to stage a difficult play which takes a theatrical poke at theatre in general and critics in particular.

Old home week at Richmond Inn The latter, who have also appeared at the Inn, have become one of the top country and western groups in Canada, and were on hand to watch their fellow citizens in action during an interlude in their own schedule.

The play is a success in that it also involves us in this deception yet con- tinually surprises us with the twists and turns of the plot. The ending is totally novel and unexpected when the complicated plot is unravelled, almost at the very last line of dialogue. Being a workshOp production, it would not be fair to apply the usual critical criteria in juding performances but overacting seemed the order of the day. Brian J. Moore, another veteran director and actor, will direct the production. which runs from Sept. 30-Oct. 15.

Unique among shorebirds, it is the female phalarope that sports the bright, strikingly patterned plumage, while the male, in much sub- dued tones, attends to nesting chores. He incu- bates the eggs! When swimming, phalaropes ride high on the water, spinning around in little circles, bills clipping below the surface to pick up aquatic insects stirred up by their activities. They also consume quantities of dry land insects when feeding on dry meadows bordering the marsh .
