Written by Eric Nicci, the com-
edy The Fourth Monk :y concerns
a poet trying to hide in the Gulf
islands from the public and his
ex-wife. Despite his best efforts,
the man is beleaguered by the an-
tics of the aforementioned people.

“‘Maybe 1 was a bit under the
influence of Manhatten,’’ said
playwright Eric Nicol, who was in
New York watching another of his
plays bomb on Broadway at the
same time that he was writing then
his latest work, The Fourth
Monkey.

“I was made very aware of the
Canadian position vis-a-vis the
greater powers and how we depend
on them,’”’ he said. ‘‘(And) -the
fourth monkey is Canada.’’

Penned in the late 1960s, the
comedy took about five months to
finish, and Nicol admits the work
may now be slightly dated. ‘I was
sort of hoping the main theme
would still be pertinent because of
the free-trade discussions.’’

Nicols’ The Fourth Monkey runs
to Nov. 7, and is being performed
by members from Presentation
House’s resident Film and Theatre
School Company.

Running in Anne Macdonald
Hall to Nov. 14 is the second play
in the season’s Canadian mini-
series, 1837 — The Farmers’
Revolt, written by Rick Salutin.

Improvisational theatre taking a
look at the Upper Canada farmers’
revolt of 1837, this play sees the

events through the eyes and ears of ~

those involved.

Both plays run Tuesday to
Saturday at 8 p.m., with a special
matinee of The Fourth Monkey
Wednesdays at 2 p.m. For details
or tickets call 986-1351.
