Hello All

Well, all of the little technical glitches have been solved so now, when
you type www.canadiantheatre.com into your browsers you'll get the
Encyclopedia. Also, Canoe has been kind enough to offer a Canoe watch as
prize for Thea-Tricks. So far (six weeks) no one has gotten the Doozey, so
here's hoping this thoroughly nifty gift will get a winner.

Lots of activity at Heavenly Voices this week. Please don't forget it for
announcing anything that qualifies as good theatre news (even an opinion on
a production). We finally have a reviewer from Western Canada in the person
of Anne Nothof who will be sending us her opinions of theatre in Edmonton.
This is great news and I'm very happy to have her with us.

Here's a trick if you want to nominate someone for inclusion: cut out or
photocopy the latest bio from a theatre program and send it on to me with
the name, date and venue of the show. It may not be the most efficient way
of getting information but it's certainly more than I ever got from the
agents. (BTW: anyone who would like to be considered for inclusion, please
don't wait for your agent to send the information...they simply don't; even
when asked.)

New Profiles:
Belke, David (Playwright, producer)
Semple, Goldie (Actor)
Kennedy, Lorne (Actor/director)
"Spring Thaw" (Play, Mavor Moore et al.)

Updates:
Thea-Tricks; Heavenly Voices; Reviews; Sources; Hollingsworth, Michael;
Panych, M.; Theatre New Brunswick; "Les Belles-soeurs"; Wright Family;
Reinhardt, A.; Brewer, G.; Short, M.; Campbell, D.; National Theatre

Festival; Musical Theatre; Bolt, C.; Carrier, R.; Cone, T.; Cook, M.;
Coulter, J.; DeFelice, J.

Cheers!
