Big Attractions and Small Details a Winning Combination for Great Lakes International Airshow

6/17/2016

 
Picture
There’s been lots of anticipation-building promotion for the Great Lakes International Airshow over the past several weeks.  Thursday, the roar of the first arriving planes overhead, brought a growing sense of excitement which will reach sky-high levels throughout Saturday and Sunday June 18th & 19th at the St. Thomas Municipal Airport. It’s shaping up to be another great show – the last one hosted in St. Thomas was voted ‘Best Airshow in Canada’ by Airshows Review Magazine in 2013.

Many of the thrills, of course, will come from high-tech entertainment – the sights and sound of fast, finely crafted flying machines flown by highly skilled pilots. However, it may be their combination with some of the show’s more low-tech, small-scale features which will help make it the ‘Best’ of 2016.

More Magic at Elgin Theatre Guild's "Jack and the Beanstock"

12/4/2015

 
Picture
It was the 4th year of Panto at the Princess Ave Playhouse as Elgin Theatre Guild presented Jack and the Beanstalk. Once again it was a delight for audience members, young and old. Performances by principles and chorus (kids and adults) were all well done, with a sense of fun. Costumes and stage (including a “fully automated” dairy) all added to the enjoyment of seeing the drama of good and evil unfold for an audience eager to participate. Congratulations to the giant list of people who made the magic happen again with this sold-out show.
