Jacobi, working con-
sistently as a professional
protrait artist, Dorr, a poet
with her camera, and
Kanaga, a -humanist, . did
their work in a more private
way.

Seen as a group, their
photographs form a bridge
of perceptions moving
through shifts in style. Their
subject. matter ranges from
fashion to still life, from

portraits to landscapes, from °

scientific documents to
painterly abstractions. In

each case, a study of their

life work reveals a versatility

previously obscured, a
greatness not fully recogniz-
ed,

This exhibition is a smaller
version of the show curated
by Margaretta Mitchell for
the international Centre of
Photography in New York,
and is circulated in Canada
by the Art Gallery of On-
tario. Presentation House is

venue for Recollections.

Cheap
Sentiment
not just
cheap laughs

CHEAP SENTIMENT kicks
off Tamahnous Theatre’s
14th season.

Tamahnous is known for
its controversial and
stimulating works and for its
sophisticated experimenta-
tion in contemporary
theatre. The company pres-
ents a bold-and alternative
style of theatre and_ is
recognized nationally and
internationally as one of
Canada’s most innovative
theatre collectives.

Cheap Sentiment is an ex-
ploration of modern life in a
dollars-and-nonsense con-

text. It -is ultimately, op-
timistic, corny, and old-
fashioned — in a col-

dhearted sort of way.

The five characters arc
hopeless and lovable. Angel
(Babs Chula), a cocaine-
addicted ex-stripper who sees
everything in light of her in-
ternal profit and loss state-
ment, is the proprietor of a
Vancouver pawnshop. Her
pestering friend, The Rever-
end (Ken MacDonald), a
defrocked, dipsomaniacal
minister turns up to mooch
yet another drink. Angel's
ex-husband Frankie (Morris
Panych) arrives with his new
fiance Betty (Barbara E.
Russell) intending to pawn
her engagement ring so he
can get into a poker game.
Along comes Ace (Tim Bat-
tle) a punk kid who is hot on
the trail of the meaning of
life and out on a daypass
from a mental institution.
As their lives entwine in
Angel's pawnshop, life
becomes increasingly com-
plex — and funny.

‘Cheap Sentiment runs
through October 12 at the
Vancouver East Cultural
Centre, 1895 Venables St. at
Victoria Drive. Curtain is
8:30 pm.

The $27 ,000
success story.

When Mrs. Mary B . of West Van-
couver placed this ad in the North Shore News
classifieds, she was optimistic about the response,
of course, but she really didn’t expect what
happened.

Dozens of people came to her ‘Open House’
sale and she sold every ‘stick of furniture within two
days. Total sale $27,000.

Not bad for a $10.29 ad, in the North Shore
News, the only advertising she placed for this sale. |

“Mis. B followed up the furniture sale
with an ad to sell all the clothing her. family would
not need when they moved.

If you have
something, or
everything, to sell, call
the North Shore News
classifieds. They can
really get you moving.
