<P class=MsoNormal><B><SPAN lang=EN-CA>Ottawa (Canada) –</SPAN></B><SPAN
lang=EN-CA> Starting today, Canadians will have access to rarely-seen images and
fascinating details about theatre sets through a new website called <I><A
href="http://www.artsalive.ca/imaginedspaces">Imagined Spaces: Scenic Design at
the National Arts Centre</A> </I>(NAC).<I> </I>This website is a new module of
<I><A href="http://www.artsalive.ca/">ArtsAlive.ca</A></I>, the National Arts
Centre’s award-winning performing arts educational website. <I>Imagined Spaces
</I>features over 120 set maquettes and related imagery from productions
spanning the Centre’s 41-year history. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>Works by more than 65 Canadian and
international scenographic designers are featured in the collection, including
such notables as Josef Svoboda, Michael Eagan, John Pennoyer, Susan Benson, John
Ferguson and Peter Rice. Accompanying the photos of set maquettes are archival
images of the built sets and production photos. Engaging essays on the history
of scenography and archiving theatre are also available alongside educational
resources on the art and craft of designing for the theatre. High school
students and teachers are also presented with a number of activities and quizzes
to help them navigate the site, become familiar with theatre terminology and
test their knowledge of scenographic design. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-CA>To celebrate today’s launch of the website,
the National Arts Centre is presenting, until Sunday September 26, an exhibition
of theatre maquettes and scenic design photos in the NAC Theatre Foyer as part
of the Canada-wide <I>Culture Days </I>event<I>. </I><o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
