This ensemble won’t improve your field- ing skills or your goaltending manoeuvres, but it will make you a funnier person. Called the Home Team Project, the idea for a resident comedy team is the brainchild of Oakville Centre theatre manager, Ken Coulter. Through such agendas as his dance residency program, launched last year and involving the innovative Toronto Dance Theatre, Coulter is trying to establish “some kind of ownership” of activities at the Centre for the community. 5’7.50 $4.25 Fri. to Sun.

After several years of booking comedy teams into the Centre, Coulter decided to “change that idea and create something where the local community can actually par- ticipate.” “And comedy is hot,” he adds. Comedy is also more malleable, you can customize it to the commu- nity, unlike dance or jazz, offers Scott Watson one of the co-founders ‘ of Comedy on Wry, the theatrical sketch comedy troupe which Coulter has hired to teach and cre- ate The Home Team. “Our goal is not just to offer comedy classes but to create a group that can be self-sufficient as an ensemble,” says fellow Comedy on Wry-er Carol Lempert. Coulter sees The Home Team going on to represent the town at various functions, not the least of which might be the Waterfront Festival. All four Comedy on Wry mem- bers - including Kevin Wright and David Brinton - have worked in the industry for a number of years and have taught at such venues as Second City and Theatre Sports aside from appearing on stage, TV and radio. The ensemble has devel- oped a special rapport with Oakville, arriving in town initially tan?

Comedy was chosen as Coulter’s second residency program because it’s a very accessible artform through which people can also learn to exercise creativity and imagina- tion, says Coulter. In 10 weeks of three hour ses- sions each Saturday, participants will learn improvisational skills, comedy writing techniques, scene study, character building and more, working from Theatresports’ founder Keith Johnstone’s textbook, Impro. Although the subject is comedy, the approach is serious. Participants are expected to commit themselves for the full 10 weeks, to do their ‘homework’, see the Comedy on Wry show at the Centre Oct. let and 22nd and rehearse for their own program to be presented in the Centre’s Studio Theatre Dec. 9th and 10th. Even for those who don’t want to be comedic performers but who want to write comedy, it would be beneficial “to see what performers go through even if it’s just once,” says Watson. The Home Team Project is for people 16 years and over and costs $230 for 10 weeks which includes one ticket to Comedy on Wry’s per- formance. For information, contact the Centre at 338-4161.
