Corner Gas: The Movie, a 90-minute feature film, is being distributed on multiple screens across Canada this holiday season. Beginning with an exclusive Cineplex Front Row Centre Events theatrical debut for five days only, the film is in select Cineplex and independent theatres across the country from Dec. 3 to 7, 2014. Tickets are on sale now at cornergasthemovie. com, or check local theatre listings. Following its theatrical release, Corner Gas: The Movie makes its super- simulcast network premiere on Wednesday, Dec. 17 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CTV, CTV Two, and CTV GO. The movie debuts Monday, Dec. 22 at 8 p.m.ET/PT on The Comedy Network and a special sneak peek airs on The Movie Network Monday, Dec. 8 at 9 p.m. ET in advance of its CTV premiere. Corner Gas: The Movie will also be the first Canadian program to receive a first-look screening on Bell Media’s CraveTV when the premium subscription TV streaming service launches Thursday, Dec. 11. Headlined by creator and comedian Brent Butt, Corner Gas: The Movie stars the original award-winning ensemble cast including Gabrielle Miller, Eric Peterson, Fred Ewanuick, Janet Wright, Lorne Cardinal, Tara Spencer-Nairn, and Nancy Robertson. Written by Brent Butt, Andrew Carr, and Andrew Wreggitt, and directed by David Storey, who served as key director on the series, the movie was shot in Saskatchewan from June 22 to July 22, 2014. MOVIE SYNOPSIS LOGLINE: Dog River has always been flat. But now it’s flat broke. CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE 4 SHORT SYNOPSIS: It’s been five years and there’s still not a lot going on 40 kilometers from nowhere. But that’s all about to change as the fine folks of Dog River, Saskatchewan face their biggest crisis ever. Brent and the gang discover that the town’s been badly mismanaged, leaving residents with little choice but to pack up and leave. As residents make one last rally to save Dog River as they know it, they discover a devious plan by a corporate giant that would change life for Dog Riverites forever. CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE 5 CORNER GAS: THE LEGACY When Writer/Executive Producer Brent Butt first scrawled his idea for a TV show on a piece of paper, he had no idea he was about to change the landscape of Canadian television. That series was CTV’s original comedy CORNER GAS, which for six seasons – and 107 episodes – would become a national treasure and perhaps, the most influential Canadian television series ever. Before CORNER GAS, the popular opinion was that Canadians don’t watch homegrown television. CORNER GAS helped change that mindset. Indeed, Canadians will watch Canadian TV, so long as it’s the right Canadian TV. For six years, and even in repeats to this day, Dog River was - and remains - a favourite Canadian television destination. Set in a fictional town where everyone knows everyone else’s business, CORNER GAS premiered January 22, 2004 on CTV with 1.15 million viewers and was a runaway hit. During its entire six-season run, CORNER GAS was the #1 Canadian comedy, maintaining an impressive average audience of 1.4 million viewers over its 107-episode run. The series finale made television history when a record-breaking 3.02 million viewers tuned in on April 13, 2009. It was a new audience high for CORNER GAS and is still the largest audience on record for a Canadian scripted television series. Many also credit CORNER GAS for paving the way for other shows. “Brent Butt’s vision continues to have a lasting legacy on the Canadian television productions that followed,” said Corrie Coe, Senior Vice-President, Independent Production, reflecting on the series’ 10th anniversary of the series premiere in January, 2014. “The series has created an increased confidence in the Canadian television industry, leaving behind a long list of great talent in front of and behind the camera, who honed their craft on CORNER GAS and went on to work on many other Canadian productions.” Originally developed by Brent Butt, Mark Farrell, David Storey, and Virginia Thompson for CTV and The Comedy Network, CORNER GAS also boasts some of the most beloved characters in Canadian television history – Oscar Leroy (Eric Peterson), Emma Leroy (Janet Wright), Lacey Burrows (Gabrielle Miller), Hank Yarbo (Fred Ewanuick), Davis Quinton (Lorne Cardinal), Karen Pelly (Tara Spencer-Nairn), Wanda Dollard (Nancy Robertson) – who continue to resonate with fans today. CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE 6 During its six season run, CORNER GAS received over 80 nominations for numerous awards, including an International Emmy nomination. It won seven Gemini Awards including Best Comedy and Best Comedy Ensemble, as well as nine Canadian Comedy Awards, four Writers Guild of Canada Awards, three Directors Guild of Canada Awards and 12 Leos. It aired in over two dozen countries worldwide and became a Canadian cultural phenomenon, spawning two chart-topping books, sold-out comedy tours, a successful line of clothing and merchandise, a top-selling series of DVDs, a Christmas special and song, dozens of notable guest stars, including two Prime Ministers, a thriving tourist industry in Rouleau, Saskatchewan, where CORNER GAS was filmed on location, and now a holiday feature film and television broadcast event. More than 10 years later, CORNER GAS is coming to the big screen with Corner Gas: The Movie, a 90-minute feature film to be distributed on multiple screens across Canada this month. Continuing to blaze new trails, the landmark film opened with an exclusive Cineplex Front Row Centre Events theatrical debut, followed by premieres on The Movie Network, CTV, The Comedy Network, and “Project Latte”, while also complemented by a special collector’s edition DVD to be available for purchase before the holidays. Headlined by creator and co- median Brent Butt, Corner Gas: The Movie stars the entire original ensemble cast. In May, 2014 the producers of Corner Gas: The Movie launched a 30-day Kickstarter campaign with a refreshed cornergasthemovie.com website to raise funds for fans to experience once- in-a-lifetime rewards and experiences. Fan response was overwhelming, as 2,500 backers contributed nearly three times the target goal. The campaign reached 100% of its initial goal in just one day. The top reward went to Saskatoon philanthropist Bart Hunter - an opportunity to host a private screening with Brent Butt, bringing the world-debut of Corner Gas: The Movie to Saskatoon and turning it into a charity event. Demonstrating the universal appeal of the series and its characters, support came from fans around the world, including Canada, the U.S., U.K., Europe, Australia, and as far afield as Saudi Arabia, Oman, India, China, Japan, and Kyrgyzstan. CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE 7 Kicking off the theatrical release were three red carpet galas attended by the cast, director, and executive producers of Corner Gas: The Movie. Festivities began with a private world-debut screening and fundraiser at Scotiabank Theatre Saskatoon on November 24, hosted by top Kickstarter award winner and philanthropist Bart Hunter. A public world premiere followed at the Canada Saskatchewan Production Studios in Regina on November 25. Capping off the festivities was a red carpet gala for Ottawa dignitaries at the National Museum of History in Ottawa on December 1. Earlier in the day, the cast and producers were recognized in person by the Speaker of the House of Commons inside Parliament Hill. With the entire gang back, Corner Gas: The Movie is a thank you to the fans for all their loyalty and affection over the past decade. More than 10 years later, the legacy of CORNER GAS lives on. Its characters continue to make people laugh, and a new generation will discover the show (and now the movie) in repeat broadcasts, online, and on DVD. It continues to reinforce a belief in Canadian TV, and inspire new filmmakers. To many, CORNER GAS now represents a magical moment in time as a Canadian television trailblazer. Corner Gas: The Movie is an inter-provincial co-production produced by Corner Gas The Movie (ON) Inc. and Corner Gas The Movie (SK) Inc. in association with Cineplex Entertainment, Bell Media, Telefilm Canada, Tourism Saskatchewan, Creative Saskatchewan, the Canada Media Fund, the Bell Fund, Cogeco, and Pairie Pants Distribution.

  • Ryga, Miss Donohue, and Me: Forty Years of the Ecstasy of Rita Joe in the University
    TRiC38#1x12.qxp_TRiC'16 2017-05-30 11:03 AM Page 11 ARTICLES Ryga, Miss Donohue, and Me: Forty Years of The Ecstasy of Rita Joe in the University MOIRA DAY This article is dedicated to the memory of Frank Bueckert (1922-2017), a valued friend, mentor, and teacher. While the seminal role that George Ryga’s 1967 classic, The Ecstasy of Rita Joe, played in igniting the modern Canadian theatre has often been acknowledged, the extent to which its success also constituted a concentrated attack on what Ryga termed the “complacent educator” in 1977, and helped revolution- ize the publication and teaching of Canadian plays at the post-secondary level, may have been less well acknowledged. This article, which documents Moira Day’s own forty-year odyssey with the play in the (largely) prairie university classroom as both a student and an instructor, investigates the play’s initial impact on scholarship, publication, curriculum at the post-secondary level, and some of its ramifications on school and university production and actor training over the 1970 and 1980s. It also deals with the challenges of continuing to teach and interpret the play from the 1990s onward, as new practices and theories have continued to alter its meaning, and considers why this odd, iconoclastic text, despite its flaws, continues to fascinate us fifty years after its initial production. On a souvent souligné le rôle essentiel qu’a joué The Ecstasy of Rita Joe, une pièce qu’a écrite George Ryga en 1967, dans la mouvance du théâtre canadien. Or, on a peut-être moins insisté sur la mesure dans laquelle son succès aura constitué une attaque concentrée sur ce que Ryga appelait en 1977 l’« éducateur complaisant », ni même sur le fait que la pièce aura servi à révolutionner la publication et l’enseignement de la dramaturgie canadienne au niveau post-secondaire.
