Everyone can join in; please check programmes/ticket stubs - one day even a performance a month ago will be part of this history.

Looking especially for events in any years that are not currently represented - the main list is being updated but any input appreciated.

Also interested in political, industrial events, exhibitions, jamborees, presentations etc etc.

Thank you.

Delete it, until it comes to light again.

Help requested from members with more growth-rings than me.

1940's/50's performers names needed, difficult to search when you've never heard of the artists. So, crooners, groups, orchestras etc etc required to assist with the hunt.

Thank you.
