WELCOME, EVERYONE, to Mainstage ‘93 and the cul- mination of our 60th anni- versary year. I’m sure you'll find this to be a busy and exciting week, Whether you are here as an audience member or asa participant, | hope you have a chance to do at least two things while you are here — Jearn something new about this craft we all so enjoy and make some new friends! ’ This is what ! believe Theatre BC and Mainstage are all about, education and camaraderie, This is the op- portunity to bring a sense of community to a provincial level. Chairperson Cynthia Bun- bury and her enthusiastic host committee have put together a package that, I'm sure, will create a real sense of event here in North Van- couver and make for a memorable Mainstage. Many thanks to our zone adjudicators — Patti Allan, Gary Dalton, Bill Dow, Bonnie Gibson, Susie Payne, and Ted Price — who travel- led to festivals in the 10 zones around the province in April and May and selected the plays repre- sented here this week. We are very pleased to welcome our Mainstage ad- judicator Jackie Maxwell, workshop plays director Duncan Fraser, and scene development directors Bill =f ATT Dow, Bonnie Gibson, Allan Lysell, Ted Price, and Peter Eliot Weiss, Also, this year we have a special workshop series and welcome the. five talented people leading these ses- sions: Chris Allan, Pearl Bellesen, Drew Borland, Susan Cox, and Bernard Cufiling.
