The Pantomime at The Welfare Hall

My mum was called Jill Drake and my dad was Bob Drake and he worked down the pit.  We lived in St Johns Road and I remember that I was about 7 when the Elvington Players was first launched.  The Pantomime was Mother Goose and somewhere I have a photo of it which I will try and find it. It was a great hit and I think most families in Elvington had a part. I remember that Pearl and Alf Tridini were in it and the costumes were great.  All singing, all dancing.
