Theatre people are de- lighted too. "We are extremely enthusi- astic about our new facilities," said Ross Williams, president of the amateur theatre group. Props, scenery, actors and directors of the Little Theatre are moving into the. 850-seat Eastdale Collegiate and Voca- tional Institute auditorium soon. The modern theatre with a semi-circular seating layout, ajr-conditioning, sloping floor, upholstered seats, a stage 40 feet wide and "more than ade- quate" parking space, is the new home for 60 theatre mem- bers. Mr. Williams says the excep- working location will make it unnecessary to reserve seats. Active members will spend evenings, Saturday after- noons and Sundays between September and May working at the school. THREE PLAYS | The three plays to be staged| this season by the Oshawa) Little theatre will all ° be! directed by Oshawa people. Janet Stevenson will direct, 'The Moon Is Blue" by F, Hugh Herbert on Nov. 17, 18 and 19. "While Janet is known most- ly for her exceptional acting talent, she has demonstrated an| equally fine ability to diyect| and we are expecting a quality) production," said Mr, Wil-| liams "Roots," a play by Arnold! Wesker, will be directed by| Marion Dennis, a newcomer to Oshawa, who, the theatre's president says, has a wide| background in theatre which in-| eludes producing and directing) for the Mountain Playhouse in Montreal. John Patrick's "Teahouse of the August Moon" will be in the capable hands of the "popu-) lar" director, Harry Chapman. The work of the Oshawa Little Theatre is not restricted) te the production of three plays| but is alse involved in the Cen- tral Ontario Drama League. | ah ayy * ba League four Cahadian Pt at.a Cen- tennial project Pith profession: | a) production and direction.

"We are going to give the best performance our organiza- tion can and we will use peo- ple who haven't had a chance before the public," said Chapman. "This could be 'the' Canadian play," Exposure to Canadian au- thors and actors is a_nation- wide attempt in centennial year to encourage Canadian writing, to spotlight Canadian talent, and to claim recognition. About 100 plays will be shown across Canada in 1967. "Line of Vision" is a two and) one-half hour play involving a boy with perplexing psychologi- cal images of his family. The conflict lies in his rebellion against conformity. The pro- tagonist is confronted with members of the family who he feels are dead set in compla- cency. Not without much drama and intrigue does the main character yield to the ways of hig family, |REGIONAL FESTIVAL The play will be entered in |\the Regional Drama Festival and then will be sent to the {Dominion Drama Finals (this lyear in Halifax) March, 1867, "Lines of Vision" will then jat Hart House in Toronto, The Oshawa Little Theatre is} an active member of the Chris-| tian Drama Council of Canada, a 12-year-old organization that attempts to 'explore modern problems in modern plays." |The chucrh-adapted plays are {performed "in thé Church and for the Church." "Many will remember 'Christ) In The Concrete City," a mod- ern, Canadian play that brings) theatre back to the church where it originally started, "The theatre was used as an) effective means of propaganda) for the church," said Mr. Chap-; man, "Professional and amateur groups have worked in Oshawa churches such as St. George's,| Northminster, | Christ Church, King Street United and many country churches,"' he said, FIRST IN OSHAWA The first Oshawa Little The! jatre was held at Rotary Hall) | with the community.

He said the result was even more hilarious than the author could ever have imagined. Sometimes cats, with essen- tial roles, disappear before showing and once the cast had a one week notice to put on a |play outside of the town when |another show failed to show. Before the present acquisition of the 'school auditorium, the Little Theatre perforamed at the McLaughlin Public Library. "The Oshawa Little Theatre is now being recognized as part of education and it is definitely a benefit to the community," said Mr. Chapman. OAS Asks Canada To Join Group OTTAWA (CP)--The Organ- ization of American States again invited Canada to join Monday but there was no af- firmative response. Canada was included in @ blanket invitation extended by Jose A, Mora, OAS secretary- |general, to all non-members in the Western Hemisphere. It came in his opening-day jspeech at the American re- gional conference of the Inter- national Labor Organization. |Twenty ~ five countries from \North and South America are represented. Mr, Mora also sought "active collaboration' in training and technical assistance between OAS members and non-mem- bers "that we would like to see within our ranks" soon. | In line with this, Mr. Mora |called on Canada to "play the decisive role" to bring about necessary economic and sociai | presenting|in 1928 and has since grow progress in the hemisphere.
