Live theatre lives

Summer Theatre membership drive

Member-Palooza planned for Saturday, February 16 C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

After a year off to reorganize, the Kimberley Summer Theatre Board is hard at work preparing for not one, but two, productions

this summer. The shows — titles have not yet been announced — will play Centre 64 for more than 20 performances and the larger McKim Theatre for nine performances. The Society is also in the middle of a membership drive and they hope to entice you out to an evening on Saturday, February 16 to learn more about the upcoming productions and about the

Society in general. Who knows? It could be something you would very much enjoy being involved with. Billed as Member-Palooza, and running from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Dance Studio at Centre 64, the evening will feature performances by local talent, door prizes, refreshments and socializing. Meet the current board members and talk about the plans for

this summer. While the shows are not yet announced pending royalty approval, a producer has been hired, as well as a director for one of the shows. Casting will be beginning soon in preparation for a very busy summer of live theatre. Please RSVP by February 12 to 250-427-4561 if you plan to attend

It has now been 11 weeks since Peter Moody and Susan Bond encountered a grizzly sow and her cubs about 40 minutes from their home on LD Ranch Road, north of Kimberley. The attack left Peter and Susan with multiple lacerations, bites and puncture wounds on their heads, Peter Moody, back on skis arms, legs and for the first time, January 6, torsos. The in2013. juries put them in hospital in Cranbrook and Calgary for a total of 12 days. They have been at home since early December. Peter is recovering well, with the scars on his head and arms becoming less noticeable. He still has difficulty focusing his left eye, near where the bear swiped him, and will be consulting an opthamologist. A massage therapist is treating a lower back problem resulting, he thinks, from the bear’s weight on top of him. Still, he recently began driving into town during daylight hours, and since the New Year has been getting out most days to do a short loop around the house on cross-country skis. Susan was more severely injured and her recovery is progressing more slowly.
