James Reaney is 80 today

[David Eden]

Today is James Reaney's birthday, and in honour of this I am curating an 
exhibit at Robarts Library about his life and work, and his connection 
to the University of Toronto.  I would be very interested to hear from 
those of you who may have worked on any of his plays, whether it was at 
university or elsewhere.  I am hoping to compile some material to 
display about productions of Reaney plays across the country.  The 
exhibit will go on display in December.

By the way, the Hart House Drama Society will be performing the 1960 
script of "The Killdeer" at the end of November.  If anyone is 
interested in further details please contact me.

I hope you will all take the opportunity to re-read Reaney's plays, and 
if you are planning on doing a production I would like to know about it!


Yours,


David Eden
