Owl's Hoot: Continued from page 22...... CREST THEATRE Schreiber High School played host on October 22nd to the Theatre Hour Company, an Ontario Dep- artment of Educatioh sponsored acting troupe work= ing from the St. Lawrence Arts Centre. Presenting an excellent program of plays, songs and poems on Canadian themes they captivated the entire audience. The poetry heard during the hour long show was written by Canadian students of var= ious age groups. "The Ecstasy of Rita Joe", a play written by British Columbia's playwright George Ryga was particualrly well received. In their eighth year as a touring group the com- pany presents a varied and fast-paced program with material suited for all age groups. During their twen- ty week bus tour the company gives performances throughout Ontario schools, spending eight weeks of this time in Northern Ontario. | With so little opportunity afforded us to see live | professinal productions it is a treat to view such an | experienced and talented troupe of actors. We hope | that they will return again to give others the opport- unity to enjoy their performance .
