Notes: | Local schoolteacher Arnold Helsby allowed community amateur theatre Tyldesley Little Theatre to premiere his latest play. It was a great success. The show was revived by TLT 50 years later, despite it being long out of print. On 29th Sep 2007, the playwright's daughter traveled from America to attend the revival. Several original cast members also attended. The show produced an award win. | |||||
