A large audience enjoyed a colourful display of dancing given in the Town Hall on Tuesday by pupils of the Carlotta Kendrick School of Dancing. It was the fortythird annual display given by Miss Kendrick's pupils.
Tje display consisted of ballet, tap, Greek and modern dancing. There were two solo performances by Beryl Martin and Jane Pealing, and Miss S G Wilson, co-principal of the school, appeared in several items.
A YEAR LATER IN 1957 -
GAY AND SAUCY - AND TALENTED!
On Wednesday at the Town Hall, (Chester) the Carlotta Kendrick School of Dancing gave a lively and entertaining dance recital in aid of the Cancer Research fund of the British Red Cross
Society. The programme was varied and interesting, with items featuring girls of all ages, from the tiny tots of two to the older teenage students. Some of the latter opened the show with a modern musical, a tap rouine danced in trim yellow tunics.
The can-can, danced a little later by a group of girls aout 13 years old, was quite gay and saucy. It was followed by a tap medley, involving a song and dance routine by Robin Blythe and Miss Sylvia Wilson, one of the school principals. A display such as this would never be complete without the tiny tots and they duly appeared looking very sweet in their white frilly ballet dresses, in an intriguing dance called "Vanity". One little girl, who liked doing solo, particularly managed to steal the show!
In the second half, Miss Kendrick herself made a brief but most successful appearance with Miss Beryl Martin. Two other items deserving special mention were the comedy routines by the older girls, one of which was a mock rugger match, performed with rather more gusto than skill. Before the last item appropriately called "A Happy Ending", a vote of thanks on behalf of the British Red Cross Society was most deservedly given to Miss Kendrick, her girls, and her helpers, and to the audience. Then Miss Kendrick was presented with a large box of chocolates by Miss Beryl Fielding and the curtain rose on the finale.
