This was our third production of "Ruddigore" and our 27th annual show.
"The only thing that was at all wrong with the show was the orchestra, somehow they managed to play loudly just at the place where a singer with a soft voice was trying to be heard".
So said the Batley News at the time (others might say "so like a band.....").
Read the full report of the show.
