Summner vacation 2008 is officially underway...and that means even
more outdoor activities. We caught a few on the weekend including the
market, the FDSA's skills & drills, the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope
revival, and some indoor activities including the Chickadee Cat
Club's show, Those Guys & That Chick @ the Plex...and more.

In the calendars, the summer soccer schedules along with a whole slew
of summer camps for kids: everything from comic books to fitness.

Because of the volume of weekend photos and videos, it's going to
take us a couple of days to get them all processed and onto the site.
We're on it...

Cheers,

George

Today marks the summer solstice - and the beginning of summer - and
the longest day of the year. Which means it's all downhill from here,
right? So let's enjoy it while it lasts.

It's been a busy week. We're still editing video from the FHS prom
parade - two more online today. We also have more photos from the
Bard in the Barracks dress rehearsal of As You Like It, shots from
the Shanklin Road concert in the park, some cute critters, Strike
Anywhere live @ The Plex, a day @ the office - a CBC TV crew - along
with some funky t's, a bit of rugby practice and some unsettling
skies.

http://justFRED.ca/

In the weekend calendars - far too much to list here. There's
everything from Ozzmosis - the Ozzy Osbourne tribute band tonight @
The Plex to a full day of skills & drills for young soccer players on
Saturday, Leo Hayes graduation tonight @ the Aitken Centre, a Saturday
celebration concert in the park, bike tours, and and and....

http://justfred.ca/justfred.forums/calendar.php

So what happened to the justFRED-O-Gram on Thursday? Blame it on a
bad video tape. Three items on the tape - we got some of them onto
the computer for editing when the tape stopped working. And by the
time we recovered and started updating the home page, it was 4 a.m.
So something had to give...and we chose the site update over the
Daily Fred.

But we're back...and hope to see you over the weekend. If we do,
don't forget to Say Cheese!

Cheers,

George

The NotaBle Acts Theatre Company unveiled its 2008 Summer Theatre Festival lineup in a launch held today at the new Barracks Square Tent in Fredericton.
The company will stage thirteen new plays by New Brunswick writers at the festival, slated for July 22-August 2 in Fredericton.

Opening the festival is Chapel Arm by Step Taylor, which will run at the Black Box Theatre, STU, July 22-26. An emotional and unconventional homecoming story set in rural Newfoundland, Chapel Arm is the latest of several of Taylor’s plays to debut at the festival, but the first to appear on the festival’s main stage. The play was chosen for the distinction, making Taylor the youngest playwright to open the festival, following a successful public reading of an earlier version of the play at the 2007 festival.

Chapel Arm will be directed by recent National Theatre School directing program graduate Rose Plotek and will star Fredericton actors Robbie O’Neill, Leah Holder, and Marissa Robinson, along with Montrealer Greg Gale.

The festival’s second main stage production will be Acting Out, a twin bill of the two winners NB Acts’ province-wide one-act playwriting competition. Acting Out will run July 30-August 2 at Memorial Hall, UNB, and will feature plays by Moncton’s Jeff Lloyd and Fredericton writer Kathleen Brown. Lloyd’s play, Someone Else’s Dream, is a slice of rural New Brunswick realism set at a bachelor party where four friends poignantly ponder their life choices, prime among them the ongoing conflict between the pull of home and the lure of greener pastures elsewhere in the country. Brown’s Our Mouths Are Filters: Documenting in the Brink, set in the Canadian high Arctic, is a poetic and imagistic meditation on conquest, heroism, and the clash between human and natural ecology in a landscape threatened by global warming.
From July 29-August 1, Barracks Square in Fredericton will play host to Taking It to the Streets, NB Acts’ annual staging of the five winners of its contest for plays ten minutes and under. The plays are presented together daily as an hour of free outdoor lunchtime theatre, starting at noon.
Comedy is at the top of the menu at this year’s Taking It to the Streets, with a lineup heavy on laughs. This year’s five winning plays are Rock It Science by Christopher Campbell, Socially Correct by Jordan Dashner, Doommates by Jeremy Gorman, The 5th Wall by Christopher Nyarady, and Our Day in the Sun by Bradley O’Donnell.
Rounding out the festival lineup will be two nights of public staged readings of new scripts in development, July 28 and 29.
NotaBle Acts is also co-producing Shakespeare’s As You Like It, set to run June 19-29 in Fredericton as the third annual Bard in the Barracks.
Festival Co-Artistic Director Len Falkenstein is excited about this year’s lineup: “We have possibly our best festival ever shaping up with strength across the board in all our scripts. We’re seeing more and more incredible work by playwrights in this province.”
Founded in 2001, NotaBle Acts is dedicated to developing and producing new plays by New Brunswick dramatists. All seven of the winning entries in the company’s 2008 playwriting contest will undergo intensive workshopping before the plays are produced at the festival, and audience feedback sessions take place for all the plays.

The weather continued to threaten to spoil the Leo Hayes High School
Prom parade...but the rain let up just long enough to let the 2008
graduates strut their stuff in front of hundreds of well-wishers
gathered outside the Delta Fredericton on Tuesday evening...and we
were there. So here's another 500 or so prom photos...along with a
bit of weather, some photos left over from our weekend visit to the
Boyce Farmers Market, and the media conference called to announce the
lineup for this summer's Notable Acts theatre festival.

http://justFRED.ca/

In the calendars today, no proms that we can see. But a whole lot of
other activities.

http://justfred.ca/justfred.forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&day=2008-6-18&c=1

Our motto, as you probably know by now, is Say Cheese, Please...and I
don't think we get as many smiles in a month as we've had in the past
two evenings as the grads from Fredericton's two high schools showed
up for their proms.

Well done, and congratulations to each and every one of you.

Cheers,

George

You'll find a few new non-prom photos in our galleries today - but
let's be realistic - when you have more than 500 photos of the 2008
Fredericton High School Prom Parade, what do you suppose is going to
dominate the home page? You guessed it: fancy cars, frilly dresses,
coiffed tresses and young men in dark suits. So congratulations to
the 2008 FHS grads.

http://justFRED.ca/

And in the calendar for today: another prom. This time it will be
turn of the 2008 graduates of Leo Hayes High School. And, weather
permitting, we'll be there once more. If proms aren't your cup of tea
- improve your writing, take a bike tour, check out the Tuesday night
concert in Officers Square or take in one of the other activities in
our calendars.

http://justfRED.ca/calendars.html/

We'll be posting some of the videos from the FHS prom parade as soon
as we get a minute - but first, it's time to clean up the cameras and
get 'em ready for another busy day in Freddy Beach.

Cheers,

George

Let's start off with our weekend coverage that included a visit to a
very busy Saturday @ the Boyce Farmers Market, a whole bunch of
soccer games (the photos are in the galleries - the scores that we
received are in the blogs), the picnic @ the experimental farm, the
world-wide knit, some hot cars in the city, a motorcycle fundraiser,
and concerts @ The Capital & The Plex . Did we forget anything?
Probably. But you can see for yourself on the home page:

http://justFRED.ca/

It's prom night @ FHS - and that means the annual parade of vehicles
of all shapes and sizes (in years past, we've seen everything from
wheelbarrows to city buses deliver the grads and their dates to the
annual rite of passage). These and other events in the calendars...

http://justfred.ca/justfred.forums/calendar.php

CU @ The Prom (weather permitting...)

Cheers,

George
