"We must be doing something
right" states John McHenry, public

theatres are feeling the recession
we just keep packing them in. And
we owe it all to our late artistic di-
rector Tony Lloyd, he knew what
his audience wanted and he gave it
to them.... entertainment. No deep
meanings, no political statements,
no answers to life, just pure enter-
tainment, and for the most part
aimed at the whole family" com-
mented McHenry.

indication, 1993 is going to be an-
other successful year. To date, 80
percent of last years total subscrip-
