OveO r the past several years, Laing has been a hard-working mainstay in island recycling. Currently, he says islanders recycle 10 per cent of their garbage. He hopes thai figure will jump to 30 per cent by June 1993.

Driftwood photo by Ian Noble THEATRE OF THE MIND: The Salt Spring Island Readers Theatre Repertory Co. performed Beyond Milkwood, a one act play focusing on the last four days of Dylan Thomas' life. The content of the play dealt with a wide range of topics, from Christmas, war, and taxes to fondling breasts and death. The play was adapted for Readers Theatre by member Robert Burbidge. A brochure handed to the audience said Readers Theatre is a distinct form of drama where the stage is bereft of scenery, movement, and costume. Thus stripped, the voice alone carries the action, meaning, plot, and emotion. It is theatre of the mind.
