Template:23 December

23rd December 1964: Two years after the residents had found their stage feet with their production of Lady Lawson Loses, they trod the boards for Christmas again at the Mission of Glad Tidings with a production of Cinderella, put on for the local children. Lucille Hewitt played the title role with Annie Walker as the Fairy Godmother and Charlie Moffitt and Irma Ogden as the Ugly Sisters. Backstage Minnie Caldwell was the prompt and was so determined to do a good job that she stayed up all night learning it by heart. The highlight of the production came part-way through when Elsie Tanner, in the role of Prince Charming, led the cast in a barnstorming rendition of the Broadway number Hey Look Me Over and they all finished with the audience joining in with that year's chart-topper by The Beatles, She Loves You!.
