Hi

 

Can anyone remember what year the end of year pantomime "Pirates of Penzance" was held, as I helped do the make-up for the sailors on stage. I need to know the years for a specific reason as it coincided with an event in my life.

 

It was in the early 1970s after 1971.

Hi

 

I will try to discover the year of "Pirates of Penzance". It may take a while and you could get other replies in the meantime.

Hi Jeddo

re "Pirates of Penzance" I am fairly certain that it was 1972.

Ann lived on lowedges crescent bout half way down on left... what is your name

[Billam]

I attended between 1961 till1965, opposite the annexed there was a sweet shop, it belonged to the Munks, their son Dave played for Sheffield UTD. I remember Sibley, he was in the library.Helliwell was the woodwork teacher, in my last year Haythorne was the form teacher, he knocked about with Miss Waite, I believe he later married her, he was very strange.

Ivor Hawthorne, would you believe he is still around, he is a minister at Mablethorpe.

Hi

 

Yes, I though the 'Pirates of Penzance' concert had been in summer 1972 also. That would fit in with my timing.

Something must've altered, because I remember Mr.Sibley roaming around the school library - did he teach Geography as a subject? - for a few years, and I didn't start at J school until after the winter of '62...think he was there for a few years after that.

I remember seeing him 'kitted up' and in town waiting for the Bakewell/Hathersage/wherever bus to go hiking.

Nice bloke - I liked him a lot, but my favourite teacher was 'Chalky' White...I thought he was brilliant. No longer with us, I suppose...

I quite agree. I was there from 62 and Mr. Sibley was there too for a few years.
