INTERVAL
-END OF SHOW-
Performance NotesThe event was cancelled after the interval due to successive and apparently reliable telephone warnings of a bomb being on the Hall's premises. This was the first time in the Hall's history that the audience had has to be evacuated, which ws done so quickly and safely. The threats proved to be false / malicious.
