Vol .7, No.44 WINNIPEG BALLET SCORES SUCCESS A truly Canadian production, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet appeared in Terrace Bay on Tuesday evening to receive the warm and grateful applause of a cap- tivated and capacity audience. Directed by Mr. Arnold Spohr whose aim is to reach all viewers, not merely students of the ballet, with his diversified program of modern interpretations of the classics and again the age old ballet in its most modern set- tings. A perfectionist he expects precision from his youthful and eager troup and, with the zany enthus- iasm afforded the young, they respond to his every # technique. The program was a tremendous success from the opening in black practice costumes when Maestro Jim Clouser rehearsed his proteges through their classical paces to Bach's Inventions, Concertino, Toccato and the Fugue with principals Sheila MacKinnon, Lynette Fry and Bill Martin-Viscount. A new and flippant pupil in the person of Richard Rutherford appears to mislead the class into something Bach never dreamed of--the jazz world of jitterbug- ging and the twist, before the astonished Maestro returns to lead them back to the classics. This bril- liant arrangement to Bach was created by Chore- ographer Brian MacDonald. The startling transition from adolescence to matur- ity is always accompanied by recurring growing pains, some of which are sweet and others bitter. Jim Clauser, the bright young Canadian Dancer- choreographer, describ es the "Recurrence" effec- tively assisted by delightful and personable Kit Copping and Raymond Goulet and with the effortless grace of the precision trained dancers. "Pas deDoux from Coppelia" again choreography by Jim Clouser and the superb classical dance by Ballerina Lynette Fry and the Premier D anseur Frederick Strobel. Concluding, Miss Fry graciously accepted a bouquet from Pamela Cumming as she and Mr .Strobal received the ovation of their audience. Excellent as accompanying pianists, Misses Sylvia Hunter and Joan Mills provided a Musical Interlude to the added delight of their listening audience. With music by Don Gillis and choreography by Brian MacDonald "Les Whoops de Doo" was a grand spoof of the American Western. A swift change to the middle west found the entire corps outfitted in' calico and dungarees for the most exuberant and buoyant square dance in "All Come Centre and Rendesvous". A poor startled left over from Swan Lake, Sheila MacKinnon, in full ballerina apparel drifted in on the O.K.Corral to be jockeyed about by the five cowhands and her erratic appearance in the remaining scenes caused ripples of mirth until her swanlike demise in the finale.
