![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ACT Drama Festival, 2006 Portage la Prairie The
Pinawa Players' production for the ACT Festival this year was the
one-act play “Albert” directed by Linda Tait and Judith Simpson.
The cast of Roger Dutton, Tom Hilliard and
Janet Hilliard were perfect in their roles of three foreigners who
could not
communicate in any language and their hand gesture communication
attempts were
hilarious. The play was performed as a
dress-rehearsal in Pinawa before playing
before an
extremely appreciative
audience at the Festival in

Over
the
River and Through the Woods by Joe DePietro Presented November 24, 25, 26 2005 The Pinawa Players delivered on their promise of a lovely comedy on the weekend with their production of “Over the River and Through the Woods”. Nick Cristano is a young man burdened with the task of telling both sets of grandparents that he is moving across the country. The family elders decide to take matters into their own hands, believing that all Nick needs is a wife to keep him anchored near them. Their desperation to keep their family together is poignant, to say the least, and the audience never left their side for a minute. John Tait’s cast featured three newcomers to the Pinawa stoage, and we’re hopeful they’ll be here long enough to become veterans. Marc Zienkiewicz (Nick) was perfectly cast and handled his role with aplomb. The two grandfathers, Michael Cavers and Gerald Turner were quite opposite in demeanor, but unified in their devotion to their grandson. Cara Daymond was the love interest invited to dinner by Gramma Emma (Connie Hamon) who doled out common sense to Nick when he needed it most. Judith Simpson and Connie Hamon appeared to have fun with their characters as the two Italian grammas. The outcome brought tears to the eyes, but they were tears of empathy and understanding at the importance of remembering the enduring spirit of the family. As always, the set decoration rivalled that of a professional production. Thank you, Players! “The Paper” November 29, 2005 ![]() The Cast: Top: Cara Daymond, Michael Cavers, Mike Zienkiewicz, Gerald Turner, (John Tait). Bottom: Connie Hamon, Judith Simpson ![]() |
