Denyse Lynde and Paul O'Neill continue with On Stony
Ground, a commemorative pageant to be staged in the Anglican Cathedral
of St. John's, Nfld. on May 27, 28 and 29. Joining the cast of performers
that range from 7 to 85 are Cantus Vocum, a prestigious Newfoundland Chamber
choir under the leadership of Chad Stride, the technical staff of the St.
John's Arts and Culture Centre, and the technical staff of CAMS (the video
unit from Memorial University), Of special interest to theatre researchers
is the fact that the Cathedral holds a massive amount of original archival
material including the original drawings for the first Cathedral building.
We are placing all of this material on video and screening this material
during the production on a series of monitors placed throughout the Cathedral.
If anyone is out east at the end of May, we hope you come down
to see this multi media extravaganza. If not, watch for it on VISION
T.V. who are coming in to St. John's production to do some taping.
According to a recent issue of the UT Bulletin, Ann Saddlemyer
is going to be awarded an honorary degree by the University of Toronto
in the June convocation ceremonies. In fact, Bill Hutt is also receiving
an honorary degree in June.
Anton Wagner had his documentary about the political and religious
mindset of Cubans forty years after the 1959 Revolution, Cuba: Country
of Souls, broadcast on Vision TV February 23.
The documentary will be broadcast on B.C.'s Knowledge Network
and on the Saskatchewan Communications Network the end of the year. Anton's
previous documentaries about Canada and the Atom bomb, Our Hiroshima,
and about the Jamaican-Canadian visual artist Michael Chambers, The
Photographer: An Artists' Journey, are distributed by the National
Film Board of Canada and can be ordered from the NFB's toll-free number
