Timmins residents will have an opportunity to appear in a made-for-TV movie. A two-hour movie chronicling the life of Shania Twain will be shot, in part, in Timmins this summer. "We were commissioned by the
CBC to make this film," said Laszlo Barna, the film's executive producer at Barna-Alper Productions in Toronto. More than $3 million will be spent producing the film, which will be shot, for the most part, in Timmins and Sudbury, Barna said. A crew of about 100 people will be on hand for the duration of the filming. We'd likely come in late-July to scout the area and start shooting in late August. And we'll be done, hopefully, by the time the snow flies." Excitement is mounting at the studio about the project. "We are going to try and tell the story of this hugely talented young woman in a way that doesn't stereotype her," he said. "The feeling we are going leave the viewers with is the message of her life, that you can

Chilly temperatures didn't stop Shania Twain fans. Hundreds of people of all ages stood in line Saturday morning to buy tickets for her June 26th concert. 400 floor seats at the United Spirit Arena sold out within the first hour of ticket sales, and even though cold
weather may have affected the length of ticket lines, it didn't discourage those true Shania fans.
Singer / Songwriter Gordon Lightfoot points to Shania Twain as a really good songwriter, a talent not usually considered her main show business attribute. "If she couldn't write those songs, man, there'd be nothing happening!"

About 10,200 Twain tickets sold out for each of the London shows. In minutes. "For a single show, this would be our highest capacity (about 10,260)," says centre general manager Brian Ohl. "We'll be over $1 million Canadian (each night). They're single-night records for us."
Be sure to pick up the latest issue of Country Weekly. Shania says her family will always come first. The pop-country queen reigns
supreme, yet she's able to keep much of her life private. That's because she makes her home in Switzerland, with her husband-producer "Mutt" Lange and their son, Eja, who turns three in August. Far away from photographers and celebrity-seekers, Shania is free to step into the roles of wife and mother without distractions. "I'm always in a family mode," she says sweetly. "I love just being at home and spending time with my son." And Shania makes sure that it's quality time. "It's tiring, but I make little rules, you know," she explains. "I like to be home every night for bath and bed time, and we always spend our mornings together. We manage to spend more time together than most mums who work eight-to-five get to." Even on the road, Shania is determined to be a hands-on mom. Eja often travels with Shania and seems to adjust to road life, with mother's help. "We get to establish a routine," she says. "I don't bring him to the venue too often, because he's usually off doing other things, like swimming or ice skating. But I put him to bed every night. He's been dealing with this life from the time he was born, so this is really second nature to him. He's a good little boy, not a hyper kid at all." That's a case of the apple not falling far from the tree. "I was always the kind of kid who was happy playing by myself," admits Shania with a laugh. "He's very much like that."
