HYSTERICAL PRODUCTIONS: By the end of 1974 we had done about 40 banquets at the HAll and they were still going strong.

But it was a very adult environment for 15 year old girls to work in; a few of my school friends also worked at the banquets as wenches and we were constantly be...

To launch the banquets my parents decided to hold a Press Reception about a month before and so we All gathered at the HAll one day in ea...
