. v' r 5 But : .l AURORA - Aurora rmident Eileen Bordessa proves it is possible to live on the fruits of beauty. An artist and concert violinist. Miss Bordessa's music and watercolors will be presented on Jan. 27 and 28 when she is featured soloist with the York Symphony Orchestra in concert at St. Andrew's Cdiege, Aurora. Miss Bordessa began-L playing the viorin at the ' age of four in Vancouver when her mother taught her on a quarter-sized imtrument. Throughout her childhood. she at- tended school half-days allowing her ample time to practise her violin. Her devotion was rewarded in 1948 when she was auditioned then recommended for a scholarship at the University of Toronto's became immersed in the hectic life of the touring concert musician. She played across Canada. in Toronto with the Summer Symphony. in Quebec City. Ha ifax. and in Banff with an opera company orchestra. She admits that pace of life has been put behind her. "i guess l'm not a ypsy. i love to travel now but i don t like touring and living out of a suitcase. l like Aurora because it's close to everything." Miss Bordessa commutes to Toronto to perform with various chamber groups hit the highlight of her per- forming is a yearly job withtheice Capades Her piayirg lends an airy musical contrast to the hrassoriented show. in the late 1960 s Miss Bordessa found another ' works at the S... i Faculty of Music.

Mr. Taylor called AL'RORA Toronto Before being tion? Well. there are theset first-rate"andhe lauded the work of Gail Kendall. who played Barbara Waterman. "You were very fortunate to get her," he said. "if she is keen. she can drive the play." Mr. Taylor asked why the cast didn't use a new ending which he had just prepared for the piay's second act. The new ending had arrived late in rehearsal. Mr. Jones explained. If we get the rest of the play completely fluid, we may go for the second en- ding. The play continues all this week until Saturday at the Factory Theatre, Henderson Dr. Curtain time 8:15 pm. Two unnecessarily long intermissions make the play last 2% hours. but the three main characters do their best to stave off the threat of . languor. As Mr. Taylor said, Miss Kendall's energy is a blessing and it contrasts well with the character of George Jones Julian.

She had been sketching for most of her life but never cornidered art to be more than a hobby. Again. he artistic devotim was rewarded when Mary Gilbert of the York Fine Arts Gallery featured her paintings in a one-woman show in September. Miss Bor- dessa exhibited 26 of her gallery, sold half of them and was commissioned to do 13 more paintings. Her favorite theme is the action of the hunt Mat of her painting depict equestrians on horseback bounding across fields behind baying hounds. Her in spiration comes from hours spent at the Toronto North York Hunt Club. Her work's depth and texture have all the in temity of oil paintings. The opening night performance had the usual sprinkling of muffed lines. but nothing serious. A comedy can sometimes bounce over a faux pas; witness the laughs after Miss Kendall declared "i ve got a freezer in the casserole." George Jones seems near-perfect as Julian. despite his slightly distracting English ac- cent. (i suppose we can't avoid the English in- uence in our theatuh, can we?) But Julian s character is just too benign to be believed and liked. Gail Kendall has far more to do in her role and she does it well. Her domineering nature evolves from what at first appears to be nervous energy. Dave Duchesne is less successful as Hank Grant. Early in the play. it is hard to believe he is the ex-athlete and globetrotting newsman he is made out to be. His character is much easier to swallow once Julian has cut him down to size. The playasawhole is competently performed. Yet it lack: at least it did on opening night a certain spark of spon- taneity. A slap and a punch that look fake. such thirgs do not help mat. ters. And when a man dances with a rekindled old ame, you might expect to see his hand on the skin of her bare back. Not oating an inch away as if she was wearing a Gardol shield.

There is the sqalid life of the crew - below in sharp contrast to he privileged life of tile officers. Un- dercurrents of resent- ment and treachery build to a shattering torsion filled climax. The cast is in full Navy period dress; the audience. because of the set design. sits in the body of the ship itself. BILLY BUDD has al- ail-male cast of 18 sailors. many of whom are new to Newmarket Theatre Centre. Playing the of- ficer Gardiner is John Dawson. who for many years played bass guitar with a roving group of musicians.
