Kaario directs Gondoliers

Are you a closet Gilbert and Sullivan fan
who keeps your copies of H.M.S. Pinafore
and Princess Ida tucked discreetly behind
the Ring Cycle or Queen? Or maybe you're a
blatant Gilbert &Sullivan fan who whistles
airs from the Mikado and can recite all of
the words to the patter song in Iolanthe.
("When you're lying awake, with a dreadful
headache, and repose is tabooed by
anxiety..." Never mind.) Either way, you
will spend a pleasant and entertaining
evening if you attend the Greater Vancouver
Operatic Society's presentation of The
Gondoliers, which is at the Centennial
Theatre in North Van. until Feb. 21 and
will be at the Gateway Theatre in Richmond
March 4-6 and 10-14. Vocal instructor Lars
-Kaario, who teaches in the Music Transfer
and Commercial Music programs, is the
Musical Director of this production, and
tickets are available from VTC/CBO outlets
and at the door. Take a friend and enjoy
an evening with Sir William Schwenk
Gilbert (who did not amuse Queen Victoria)
and Sir Arthur Sullivan (who would much
rather have been writing hymns than
scoring satires for the hoi polloi).

Can’t cram in cafe

This Thursday and Friday is Spring Break,
which doesn't mean a great deal to those
of us who don't have to cram for midterms,
except that the North Cafeteria will be
closed both days. The South continues as
always.

Save those bags!

Do you throw out lots of dry cleaning bags
or plastic ice cream pails? Don't! Save
them up and bring them in for Donna
McLaren's pottery students. Dry cleaning
bags, we are informed, are exactly right
for protecting moist clay, and ice cream
pails are the right size for measuring out
clay in kilo lots. Bring them in to A106.
