Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Paintd play: First time playwright Dennis Tourbin stands in one of the sets from his play FLQ or CBC. It's unusual in that the backdrop - 102 carefully painted scraps of newspaper with headlines alluding to the October Crisis - gives almost subliminal meaning to the action onstage.
