They also learned how to make someone ‘appear’ with a puff of smoke and a lightning flash, how to create a fog from ‘fog juice”’, and ow to make people ‘fly.

As well as teaching the magic art of illusion, otherwise known a5 deceiving the audience, Dr. Young covered some very practical aspects of theatre 8 flats - and they are neccesary because the six to eight foot canvas and wood structures can be very awkward - and sets were covered. ; Painting for textural differences in scenery was described. Walls and trees can have a _ ‘three- dimensional’ look about them if they are painted with varied textures and colours. , Lighting, including the use of spots, colors, and special effects, was discussed extensively at the workshop. oO The use of black light was also touched on, with special attention paid to the use of lure paint to make gruesome delights like skeletons visible on a darkened stage. With the Northwest Summer School of the arts’ upcoming production of Macheth in mind, participants at the workshop asked Young how to handle armor and how to make real sounding swords for soldiers. They also asked questions about how to make not too common pieces of furniture: a kings throne? Young looked over the theatre facilities in Terrace, both the R.E.M. Lee Theatre and the Terrace Little Theatre's building, and made suggestions for new ways to use the facilities. He had ideas for improvements in both ‘buildings that did not involve expensive materials or drastic alterations. The workshop wag termed “excellent” by Elaine Flieschman, one of the participants. She said that Young “packed a lot of information into the two-day period," and kept the tone light by telling anecdotes from his own’ years of theatre work as a stage manager and actor, CALGARY (CP) — The Italian community in southern Alberta has raised about $9,950 to help rebuild areas of northern Italy devastated’ by an earth- quake last year.
