A PLUMMER ROLE FOR A YOUNG TALENT: Florence MacGregor has been cutting quite a swath at the Stratford Festival for the last few years, but this summer, she'll be tackling Shakespeare of a different stripe.

She's been named the winner of the Shakespeare Globe Centre of Canada's Christopher Plummer Scholarship Award. She'll join 15 other apprentices from around the world for four weeks of master classes with leading professional's at the Globe Theater in London, England-- the faithful recreation of the Bard's theatre.

Meanwhile, rumours persist that Plummer will return to our Stratford Festival next season, but not in My Fair Lady.

The article is accompanied by a photo of FLORENCE MACGREGOR AND CHRISTOPHER PLUMMER.
