News of CLC and Friends

The Chamber of Commerce of the Borough of Saint-Laurent nominated Laurence for the Alpha New Business Prize.

Canadian dance leading light and CLC regular David Earle received the Walter Carson Award.

Bill’s 1990 solo Heartland and duet The Brother’s Plaid made appearances this spring and promise to again in the near future, and Jimmy braved 4 weeks at the National Ballet Summer School and “can come back anytime”.

In other fields Bill and Laurence have been made honourary members of the League of Merchant Mariners of Canada, Juliette is starting piano lessons and Bill’s ‘67 Chrysler Newport started after 5-1/2 years of inactivity and $100 of repairs, and at this moment is the vehicle of choice for Bill Kimball’s baseball team in Peterborough.

And last but not least, Sajith Kumar, a dance artist, and Shaiju Thomas, a make- up artist and costumer, are arriving from Kerala, India on September 25 to make a comparative study between Kathakali dance and CLC repertoire. We will be working on Kudelka rep and Laurence’s duet Les Paradis Perdus so lets see what happens! Well, that’s it for now.
