Grindstone Theatre combines veteran talent with up-and-comers in A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder
Article content 'It's a cast of 11, it's an orchestra of seven,' says Martin. 'We had maybe a six-piece band with Rocky Horror, but now we have strings as well on this show, and we're actually using the orchestra pit. It's definitely the biggest show we've taken on. It kind of comes with the territory of having a 350-seat theatre, you know?' Article content For Martin, who started Grindstone Theatre back in 2011, this has been quite the trip. The Grindstone has grown significantly as an organization, from a shoestring operation to full-time staff and the operation of three venues and a theatre school. Martin has gone from focusing almost exclusively on the long-running The 11 O'clock Number: The Improvised Musical to a main stage season in multiple venues. Article content 'I think back to when I was in grade six and I saw my first Citadel show, Into the Woods,' he muses. 'I learned later, once I was in theatre school, that Ron was in that show, that he was playing the character of Jack. So, I'm still kind of a younger director and I'm working with all of these people that I used to sit in the audience and watch, and it's very much a cool experience.'

Vincent Gallo & James Franco's Golden State Killer Thriller On Sale At Cannes Market With Lionsgate; U.S. Deal In The Bag
EXCLUSIVE: True-crime thriller Golden State Killer (previously known as The Policeman), starring Vincent Gallo and James Franco, is on sale this week at the Cannes market with Lionsgate. The film has secured a domestic distribution release via Lionsgate's longtime genre partner Grindstone. More from Deadline Neon Takes North America, UK, Australia & New Zealand On Cristian Mungiu's 'Fjord' With Sebastian Stan & Renate Reinsve - Cannes Market Cannes Chief Thierry Frémaux Addresses Trump's Tariffs: "Cinema Always Finds A Way Of Existing & Reinventing Itself" Kal Penn, Booboo Stewart & Nicole Elizabeth Berger To Lead Underground Chess Thriller 'Contra' Written and directed by Vito Brown, the movie has Gallo playing Golden State killer Joseph James DeAngelo, the serial murderer and rapist who began terrorizing California residents all the way back in the 1970s, only being brought to justice in 2018. Franco plays a detective who faces the impossible task of finding the serial killer at the height of his crime spree before he can claim his next victims. Producers are Scott Clayton, Jordan Gertner, Barry Brooker, Todd Williams, and Gary A. Hirsch. Gertner was previously aboard as writer-director but that's no longer the case, we understand. The project, which is currently in post-production, hit some turbulence last year when it was scrutinized by SAG-AFTRA over misconduct complaints against Gallo by multiple female actors. The complaints spotlighted sexual comments allegedly made by Gallo in the audition process, which took place in November 2023. Actor, filmmaker and musician Gallo, a Venice Best Actor winner, is known for subversive and provocative works including The Brown Bunny. 127 Hours, Spring Breakers and Pineapple Express star Franco has a spate of independent projects in production or post including Bunny-Man and Alina of Cuba: La Hija Rebelde. He hasn't appeared in a studio movie since the 2021 settlement of a legal case brought against him by former students who accused him of sexual misconduct.

SLAM Acquires Gold Claim With Float Up To 302.5 g/t Gold
New Gold Claim Adjacent to Slam's Jake Lee Gold Project MIRAMICHI, NB / ACCESS Newswire / March 27, 2025 / SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV:SXL) ('SLAM' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce it has signed an agreement to acquire mineral rights for the 2640 hectare Love Lake gold claim where previous workers reported quartz float grading up to 302.5 grams per tonne ('g/t) gold. The claim is adjacent to Slam's wholly-owned Jake Lee gold project where Slam has discovered quartz float grading up to 39.3 g/t gold and gold-bearing soil samples up to 980 ppb gold. Highlights of exploration results reported by previous workers and by Slam are as follows: Visible gold in quartz boulders grading up to 302.5 g/t gold (Reference 1 below); One soil sample grading 10,000 parts per billion ('ppb') gold previously reported by Magna Terra Minerals Inc. (Reference 2) and shown below on Figure 1; Fifty four (54) soil samples grading from 20 ppb to 256 ppb gold (Reference 2); Two hundred and twenty (220) soil samples grading from 10 ppb to 19 ppb gold (Reference 2); Slam has detected similar gold bearing soil samples up to 980 ppb gold (Reference 3) on its wholly owned Jake Lee claims as shown on Figures 1 and 2; Slam has discovered gold boulders grading up to 39.3 g/t gold (Reference 3) on its wholly owned Jake Lee claims as shown on Figure 2; These gold occurrences trace out a gold system in soils, boulders and outcrop that trends easterly for 13,000 meters from the Edge 16 gold occurrence on Figure 1 to the CT vein on Figure 2. The pattern of soil anomalies suggests the gold may be associated with a set of northwest-trending structures. The geological setting is similar to the nearby Clarence Stream Deposit where Galway Metals Inc. currently has NI43-101 compliant Indicated Mineral Resources of 922,000 ounces of gold and Inferred Mineral Resources of 1,334,000 ounces of gold. It should be noted that the presence of gold in this deposit nearby may not apply to the Love Lake or the Jake Lee claims. Figure 1 Jake Lee - Love Lake West - Gold Soil Grids - Gold Float Slam intends to commence the 2025 exploration program at Jake lee and Love Lake as soon as to weather conditions permit. The program will begin with prospecting on multiple gold soil targets grading up to 10,000 ppb on the Love Lake claim and up to 980 ppb gold on the Jake Lee claims. The main priorities are to find the bedrock source of the 302.5 g/t gold float on the Love Lake claim and the source of the 39.3 g/t float on the Jake Lee claim. Figure 2 Jake Lee - Love Lake East - Gold Soil Grids - Gold Float The Love Lake Agreement: The Company has signed a binding Term Sheet with Grindstone Resources Inc. ('Grindstone') (the 'Term Sheet') giving the Company the option to acquire an 80% interest in the Love Lake Property (the 'Property') in the Province of New Brunswick, Canada (the 'Project'); To acquire 80% interest, the Company has agreed to the following work expenditures and cash payments to Grindstone: *Third year expenditures to include a 1,500 meter drilling program. **Fourth year expenditures to include a 2,000 meter drilling program. Upon completion of the work expenditures and cash payments, the Company will operate the Love Lake Property as an 80/20 joint venture (the 'JV') with Grindstone and both parties are to fund exploration and development as to 80% and 20% participation. If either party's interest falls below 10%, the interest will convert to a 2% NSR buyable down to 1% for 500oz gold or cash equivalent. References: Reference 1: Woods, G., 1993.

Granges Copper Nickel Cobalt Zone: Goodwin drilling highlights include a 64.90 meter core interval grading 2.14% copper equivalent drilled in hole GW24-02 on the Granges zone. Logan Copper Nickel Cobalt Zone: All five holes on the Logan Zonecut copper nickel cobalt mineralization including 12.14 meters grading 1.54% copper equivalent in hole GW24-14 and 17.10 meters grading 1.22% copper equivalent in GW24-15. Farquharson Copper Nickel Cobalt Zone: The 5 Farquharson holes define a consistent zone of mineralization with dimensions 150 meters long by 50 meters thick by 100 meters deep. The zone is open to expand along strike as well as at depth beneath a 60.60 meter core interval grading 1.17% copper equivalent in Hole GW24-03.
