Dramatic experience
a confidence builder

The drama program at
Skeena Junior Secondary
School showed two plays to the

public this school year focusing
on family entertainment.

The first show of the year,
Schooldaze, was a collage of the
trials of going to high school,
and Ghostchasers was a parody
of the movie ghostbusters,

Theatre Arts instructor Brian
Koven said he wanted to do.
something different from last
year’s shows Squeeze and Juice
which were about tecnage
alcohol abuse. °

Videos of last year’s plays
were made with copies of ©
Squeeze being distributed to Brian Koven
schools and public health units around the province.

Trying to make sure the videos don’t get ‘‘hidden away,”
Koven is ‘‘hyping them up” and they will be broadcast on
CFTK during the second and third-week of September.

Koven says his theatre program, which started with one
course and eventually built into a full program, is advanced

compared to other school’s programs,

“I haven't heard of another program in the province that
does anything like we do,”’ he says. ‘Its not an elitist course
for just a handfull of students either which I’m quite proud
of,”

The number one aspect of the theatre is to build confidence
though according to Koven who is also an English teacher.

“I just found out the number one fear is not death or
something like that — but public speaking,” Koven says,

“] think more parents are realizing drama isn’t just an airy
fairy thing but something that can help kid’s confidence.”

Next year’s plays will depend on the type of teenagers
Koven sees in his class, but he has several in mind such as The
Beverly Hill Billys, Is There a Doctor in the House and Rebel
without a Cause,

Jehovah's meet

Over 1200 delegates from the northwest attended the
district convention of Jehovah's Witnesses at the Terrace
Arena July 12 - 1§

The theme of the convention was “pure language’ — the
need for mankind to speak a common language that will unite
people of all nations.

In addition to guest speakers, the convention featured |
song, prayer and drama.

A baptism of “those learning the pure language” was held
in the pool at the recreation centre on Sataurday, ,

The keynote speaker, A, Ramseyer, spoke on the need for a
pure language saying “it was a Proper understanding of the
truth about God contained in the bible concerning his pur-
pose for the earth and man.

Other speakers at the convention, which was one of 32
summer, district conventions held in Canada this year, talked
about being vigilant with prayers, “coping with the devils
crafty acts,” and "doing Gad’s will with zeal.’
