Local play is brilliant The Borelians Community Theatre brightens up the win- ter season with its production of Brighton Beach Memoirs. The semi-autobiographical play written by Neil Simon, takes place in September, 1937. The memoirs are those of Eu- gene Morris Jerome, a 15-year- old boy caught in the middle of puberty. The all-star cast is led by first-time director John Fran- com. "I have found this play quite interesting to work with for two reason quite apart from the careful craftsmanship which is the hallmark of nearly all Neil Simon's writing," Mr. Francom said. "The first is the strength of the presentation of what I must call family values which seem sorely lacking in many contem- porary plays." "The second," he added, "is the fine depth of characteriza- tion not always found in Si- mon's work to such a degree." The actors chosen to portray Simon's characters by Mr. Bailey music students on right note "The Royal Conservatory of Music has released marks for the winter session. Local students have scored as follows: Grade One Theory -- Meredith Allin - 86; Grade One Singing -- Cathy Pavlik - 74; Grade Two Singing -- Leslie Bradley - 81; Grade Four Singing -- Katie Talbot - 83; Grade Eight -- Eve Stone - 77. Your teacher, Eleanor Bailey, is very proud of you. To better serve the people of Port Perry and Area HOGAN'S HEARING AID CENTRES -- NOW OPEN -- MONDAY & WEDNESDAY 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (both days) JACK MERLIN 230 QUEEN STREET, 985-4422 Francom fit the bill perfectly. Eugene, a gawky teenager who's hormones can't decide if he's a man or a boy, is portrayed brilliantly by female actress Autumn Smith. Eugene's brother Stanley is played by Borelians veteran Steve Foote who brought his usual talent to the stage. Possibly the best scene in the entire play is between Eugene and Stanley. The older brother is giving Eugene a lesson in pu- berty and the two actors give the scene everything they've got. Their parents Jack and Kate are portrayed by real-life hus- band and wife team John and Louise Lukianchuk. Both ac- tors have numerous credits to their name and brought their knowledge to the stage once more. 7 Some really emotional scenes happen between Kate and her live-in widowed sister Blanche, who is portrayed wonderfully by Kari Townsend. The two women set sparks off each oth- er in act two, when a fight to end all fights erupts between them. Patti Gallant and Marsi Lu- kianchuk round out the cast as Blanche's daughters (and Eu- gene's cousins) Nora and Lau- rie. The production was ajudicat- ed for the ACT-CO Festival by Christopher Covert. Brighton Beach Memoirs re- ceived rave reviews from Mr. Covert. He said the whole cast re- searched their characters care- fully, and the costumes and set design matched the period it was representing. "The director and actors milked every bit of comedy from the lines," play producer Nor- ma Van Camp recalls Mr. Cov- ert as saying. The play runs again this Thursday, Friday and Satur- day at the Town Hall. The doors open for the caba- ret performance at 7 p.m. A full. bar selection is available.
