Ice Show Wins Warm Applause

Harry Wren's "Ice Follies, 1964" provided Nelson theatre-goers with their first taste of overseas theatre for the year, and, it must be recorded, they found the taste very palatable, Stars Pat Gregory and Jack Rose delighted everyone with their grace, partic-ularly in the Strauss waltz act, and Terry (prince of comperes) Scanlon provided the side-splitting funny stuff.
