Program Notes
Producer's Note from the program
Good Evening,
As the curtain opens tonight, mat I present to you a show which is a polished glimmer of the total efforts of our company.
Time is an intangible quality of life. It is even more elusive in theatre. For all the efforts that are put into a production, the results are only fleeting moments of human performance and emotion. The instantaneous delivery of a line, the crescendo of the orchestra, a dancer's vault, or a light change on the cyclorama, these sensory experiences are but for a moment. What lingers on is your mind's image, a tingle of your emotions, an impression which will always remain.
What is the motivation for theatre? Perhaps it is the silent effort of everyone involved; from the first time a script was opened, that first yard of muslin tacked to a lumber framework, to the last dab of greasepaint, and the ultimate closing of the curtain; all these efforts attempt to present to you, our audience, a mural of a summer in the dimensions of a thumbnail sketch.
Tonight, put on the hat of a seasoned Sherlock Holmes, and see if you can't discover in NO NO NANETTE the clues to a story of theatre, young people, and a company called Peter Quince; it's a fantastic experience!
Thank you for helping blend the colours from which a theatrical portrait of gratitude and cooperation will be painted.

Director's Note from the program
There are many facets to this business of theatre, but perhaps the two most important are the growth and sharing. The playwright shares ideas and feelings with the director and actor, the director and actor share with each other,the actors share with the audience. Through this process the play grows from words and musical notes on paper to a living, dynamic being. After the last light has been hung and the last line learned, if the play and cast have not grown together, the show is not ready.
The cast and crew of our production have worked hard and sacrificed much over the past weeks to make NO NO NANETTE as fine a show as possible. I am proud and pleased to have been a part of this growth. Not unlike Jimmy Smith of this evening's performance, out goal has been, in part, to spread sunshine. You are here tonight. If we can share something of ourselves with you, the cycle is complete. We want to be happy!
