Don Hutton Was this the second time the society performed Desert Song? I have a feeling they did it in the 1940s or 50s.

Don Hutton I think Mum was in the chorus although the way she went on you would think she was a leading player!

Roseanne Winstanley I'll try and find the program, but can tell you I was married in 1971 and was before that, so thinking maybe 69/70.

Don Hutton OK that would be the second production as Mum only participated up on the stage to the mid 50s at most and later involved in wardrobe stuff.

Anna Greaney I was going by the year of the show - 1968/69?

Roseanne Winstanley Hello Greaney families. James is 2 years older than me. I have given the original photo to Michael. I'm thinking maybe James about 21ish. I think the show was in 1968, but your aunt Annette may be able to help with this. The show was the The Desert Song.
