Community theatre alive and well
Editor:
Recently I attended the ACT production of ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’ presented for the third time to a full house at Confederation Centre to the delight an an enthusiastic audience. When was the last time any show, amateur or professional, played to a sold-out house three times in a row at the centre?
JCSS’ers in Film at RIFF
Jesus Christ Superstar cast members Valerie Moore, and David Moses and show ASM Paul Whelan are featured performers in “Mother’s Milk” a short film debuting at the Reel Island Film Festival (www.reelisland.ca) this Saturday night, Nov. 20 at 9pm, as part of the Reel Shorts III program. The comedy, directed by David Moses, follows the adventures of an entrepreneur as he tries to market a new line of dairy products made from Mother’s Milk. Tickets are available at the door, but patron should arrive early as tickets for this program tend to sell out quickly.

It was awesome to see those of you who came down last week… It was a really great time… and if your gluttons for punishment maybe I’ll see you again this Friday!

Congratulations on Production of JC Superstar
Congratulations on the excellent production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Everything was superb, especially the singing. I have seen many productions of JCS, but I can honestly say that Jeremy Hickey was by far the best performer of Jesus. What a voice!! When he sang Gethsemane, the hair on my neck stood up! Looking to the future, how about “Les Miserables” Your troupe would make an excellent job of this great show, I am sure. Maybe Jeremy as Jean Valjean? Just imagine his voice with those wonderful songs.
Magnificent!!! Well done and kudos to everyone involved. Also hearty thanks for giving the time and effort to entertain so completely!
Dawn Mulcahy.

Confederation Centre Presents “Tempting Providence”
The Confederation Centre of the Arts will present the heart-warming play Tempting Providence on the Mainstage on Friday, November 19, at 8 p.m. Commissioned by Theatre Newfoundland Labrador, the play tells the true story of Nurse Myra Bennett, a British-born nurse who came to Newfoundland after learning of the desperate need for medical aid in rural communities. Bennett arrived in Daniel’s Harbour on the Northern Peninsula in the spring of 1921. She signed on for a year but stayed for over 50. Known throughout Newfoundland and Labrador as the “Florence Nightingale of the North,” she delivered more than 700 babies, extracted at least 5,000 teeth, set broken limbs, and performed kitchen table operations by lamplight. She married local merchant Angus Bennett and had three children. She died in 1990 at the age of 100.

A great performance of a great musical
Editor:
I recently returned from a night in Charlottetown at the theatre. I was amazed and happy to see almost a full house (on a Thursday night) at the Confederation Centre to see a marvelous and very well-done performance of Jesus Christ Superstar.
