Further Information Vera Gilbert provided the musical setting for the dance routine. The trumpet was played by Jack Lanham and recorded on a supplied 'Ferrograph' tape recorder. Six young women provided half-time coffee. Special thanks are due to Nancy Egan who willingly shouldered so many of the onerous tasks inseparable from any Theatrical Production. (Programme notes). The programme says that this is a Theatre Club Production.
