Merry Moments - A Revue

This was quite a happy revue to open the year presented on Monday 12 February 1962.  It was produced by Rene Levenspiel.  It consisted of six segments: "We're off to Battersea Park"; "Bicycle Belles"; a medley of songs given the name "At the Party" which included numbers like I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside and a Charlston dance; "A Husband for Breakfast", a longer dramatic piece; another medley of songs "Back to the Party" and then a final segment, "our president, Ted Bryant introduces us to you".  At this point, perhaps no introductions were necessary!

It's interesting to note that this was the last commercially printed programme (the last few years were done by the Advocate Press) for about ten years.  Programmes were roneo'd from the next show until the early seventies.

Unfortunately, apart from the programme and one newspaper clipping, there is nothing else on this show in the archives.
