index --- THEATRE
The Mad Hatter Theatre Company proudly presents the classic children's tale: "The Sleeping Beauty". A play for children in three acts by Charlotte B. Chorpenning.

Advance tickets will be available in September by contacting the Box Office at 922-3115, ex. 330. Don't miss out in this opportunity to participate in a theatrical experience for all of
those who are young at heart.
The Mad Hatter Theatre Company was formed in June of 1999 to showcase the collective talents of the members of the Carlton Drama Club. This educational theatre group has received provincial recognition since 1990 and has represented Region 7 of the Saskatchewan Drama Association at the provincial high school drama festival for the past three years. The club's
productions of Patchwork, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, and the Little Mermaid have truly brought children's theatre to prominence in Prince Albert . . . which is as it should be because we are Prince Albert's original children's theatre company.

Politics
Opening Reception: September 10, 1999 at 8:00pm - Lecture by Myles MacDonald at 9:00pm
Works by: Noah Ballantyne, Allen Clarke, Ruth Cuthand, Chris Ferchuk and Myles MacDonald
This exhibition curated by Ulrike Veith explores political issues in regional artists’ work.
Noah Ballantyne, a Cree artist, contrasts symbols of white cultural dominance with symbols of aboriginal culture in his work. His paintings are closely cropped details of British flags with aboriginal symbols like feathers painted on them.
Allen Clarke, a Cree artist, discusses sensitive political issues in his work and does not avoid critical reflection on issues in the aboriginal communities. He uses a vibrant colour palette and a very expressive style to make his comments.
Myles MacDonald has been painting a monumental political work, Sic Transit Gloria Mundi (thus Passes the Glory of the World) that comments on society’s obsession with money and how the world is dominated by the media, the banks and corporations, and politicians. He is painting a romantic late gothic ruin set in the landscape of the Canadian shield. The ruin’s figurative ornamentation are politicians and media icons, all in varying states of decay and portrayed with fine detail. The work is highly satirical.
Ruth Cuthand’s Indian Portraits, Late 20th Century, an excerpt, use one commercial item, a small coloured feather headband in portraits of aboriginal people. The images juxtapose this stereotypical accessory with the complexity and individuality of aboriginal identity.
Chris Ferchuk in his video work examines how politics impact society and the effect on the individual in society. This political analysis is a reflection of local politics but also has broader implications.
