Blantyre’s talented dancers of 1980. This is Eleanor Roxburgh’s dance class at their annual show in EK’s Village Theatre. The young dancers entertained proud parents and grandparents in a packed venue, showing off a variety of dance styles.
This was the second year running the dancers held their show in that venue. I have a memory going to see my sister in this show and seeing various girls from school up on stage too.
