14 Terrace Review — Wednesday, October 21, 1987 | ne,
_ Costume designer enjoys
working behind the scenes.

*‘As a child I wanted to get in-
volved in theater, but I didn’t. |
was too shy, but there’s
something very exciting about
it.”’

Rose-Lynn Fleury is still shy,
but as costume designer for the
Terrace Little Theatre she's cer-
tainly involved up to the hilt in
theater these days. She began
with the company by doing the
design work for last year’s pro-
duction of Young Dracula, and
she’s now occupied with the
TLT’s latest project, ‘‘Heavens
to Betsy’’.

The play, set to be staged
Nov, [3 and 14 at the R.E.M.
Lee Theatre, has a cast of 11
main characters and a chorus of
30 — all appearing in custom-
cut dress conceived and executed
by Fleury. It’s a big project,
made larger by a change re-
quired of the chorus from their
‘ initial appearance as peasants to
a later role as natives of a
tropical island.

Where do the design ideas
come from? In doing ‘‘Heavens
to Betsy”, Fleury, along with
the rest of the production crew,
went back to the master of
design himself — Walt Disney.
- “This production is almost like
a cartoon,’’ Fleury said. ‘‘We
looked at Walt Disney’s work
and got a feeling for the
simplicity of line.”? She added
that watching actors in rehearsal
often triggers costume ideas.
“Pye always had a strong im-
agination,”’ she said.

The actors’ dress has to match
the setting, and Fleury said all
the ‘elements: of the production

‘have to be coordinated.
‘Everybody has to work
together,”’ she said. “‘I'm in-
terested to balancing color and
using it effectively.”’

Fleury will be doing the design
and pattern cut-out work on
“‘Heavens to Betsy”’ herself, but
she’ll have some help on the sew-
ing. A 17-year resident of Ter-
race, she’s been a professional
dressmaker for over three years.
Her theatrical involvement
began when TLT producer
Marilyn Kerr asked her to design
a costume for daughter. Pam

Riverboat Days

was the site on Saturday, Aug. 1
of an impressive ceremony when
. two totem poles were raised, the
first in over 100 years. The pole
raising, witnessed by about
2,000 people, was followed by a
salmon barbecue and a well-
attended feast later that evening.
Skeena Mall Merchants Asso-
ciation sponsored another suc-
cessful bed race on Thursday
~ evening on Lakelse Avenue.
Some of the many other
events which took place are as
follows: ,
@ Canyon City Lions all-native
soccer tournament.
@ Terrace men’s slo-pitch
league tournament.
@ Pancake breakfasts put on by
the Terrace Downtown Lions
and B.C. Old Age Pensioners
Branch No. 73.
@ Canyon City Lions bingo.
@ Kermode canoe regatta spon-
sored by the Centennial! Lions.
@ Timberland horse show.
@ Sunday brunch sponsored by
the Downtown Lions.
@ The Inn of the West slingers'
race.

@ Fireworks provided by the,

City of Terrace and. organized
by Ray Tremblay.

One.of the real highlights was

Kerr. After that she did some
work on productions by Ter-
race’s Lynn-Leydier Frolick. As.

a single mother of six children,

five of whom still live at home,
Fleury said, ‘‘Sometimes [’m
not quite sure how I get the time,
I just take one thing at a time.”’

~. With “Heavens to Betsy”
Fleury will be entering a new
_phase:in her theatrical activities
_ by getting one foot on the stage.
She’s going to join the kids in
‘the chorus, and she'll probably |
be identifiable as the one trying

to hide in back. |.

tions to Lynn Froelick, the

for a superb performance. |
would also like to convey my ap-
preciation to the Co-op for their
sponsorship of this first-class
Stage presentation.

This year saw the first baby

born during Riverboat Days be-
ing honored. 1 would like to
thank all those merchants who
provided gifts and the City of
Terrace for the donation of an
appropriately engraved spoon
for the baby.

I would be remiss if I didn’t
offer a sincere thank you to
Bobbie Phillips, manager of the
Terrace and District Chamber of
Commerce, for all her help and
to the two students who helped
promote our celebrations, Sherri
Pannun and Michael Wong.
Also, my thanks to the Chamber
for their sponsorship of the
Window Decorating and
Costume contest.

Many thanks to Mrs. Vesta
Douglas, our first and hopefully
lasting Riverboat Queen, who

generously gave of her time to .

attend many functions on our
behalf. We could not have had a

more. worthy representative than |

Vesta, a person of long residence
in our city and a person who
unselfishly gives of herself to her
community.

I would like to thank all of the
executive of the Riverboat Days
Society for the support they gave
me throughout the year.

Congratulations are also in
order for the residents of Ter-
race for their attendance at and
participation in our ' celebra-
tions, _

._ As you will witness from the
foregoing, I have run the risk of

omitting mention of organiza-

tions and individuals who may
have contributed to another suc-

cessful celebration. If that is the.

case, please accept my
apologies.

Best wishes to the Terrace
Diamond Jubilee Committee in
their efforts to make 1987 a
momentous 60th birthday
celebration.

Also, many thanks to the
media for their excellent
coverage of events and the
publicity they provided leading
up to Riverboat Days.
