"Jackie did a super job, it was a fantactic effort on everyone's part".

Speaking was Gale Shaw, secretary of the Cayman Drama Society, and Jackie Balls who had just presented the Drama Society with $719.28- half the proceeds from the Ballett School's "Natures Four Seasons".

The proceeds were in aid of the Drama Society's Theatre Building Fund. The other half went to the Catholic School in aid of their auditorium. "This was a huge donation to start the building", said Chairman Michael Austin. "It is a great start". The building committee comprises Mrs. K.R. Crook, Mr. Austin and members of the Cayman Singers and Drama Society, who form a joint committee for the Theatre project.

Mrs. Shaw said the parents should also be complimented for their efforts and particularly the fact they, along with Mrs. Balls, paid for most of the costumes. "And of course the children who did such a great job in the show should be praised."

The ballet ran May 30 through June 1 at the George Town, Town Hall.
