Photo by Greg Huneault By Judy Sundland Attending a play is an enjoyable experience. One can disappear into the cast and let them entertain for a couple of hours. It all seems so very simple, runs so smooth and yet -- the hundreds of hours of rehearsals, memorizing of lines, set-building and the like are utterly overwhelming. "The Hand that Cradles the Rock," put on in May by the Rossport Theatre Group is sold out once again for its second perfor- mance! Even before the set was complete, tickets were sold and there's excitement in the air! Many help behind scenes Dave McCullough and Dave Speer have built the set with mate- rial donated not only by them, but by countless other supporters. The Lighting Man, Hadley Kolton, is fine-tuning his performance, while Dave Speer rigs up the electrical. Hadley has lived in Terrace Bay for one and-a-half years, which is a real change from his native envi- ronment of Toronto where he was born and raised. He attended both York University and Waterloo University and has a B of Sc in Psychology. Hadley enjoys cross-country skiing and aerobics, and in his spare time he is the Mental Health Worker for the Terrace Bay-Schreiber area. Always interested in acting, he had an early start as Santa Claus in a Grade one production. He moved on to playing Linus in "Your a Good Man, Charlie Brown" in NOTICE Due to the Easter weekend, deadline for ads and stories, notices, etc., is Wednesday at 5:00 pm, March 30 The Terrace Bay-Schreiber News - NOW OPEN!
