I have just taken note that the programe is year stamp 1957 can any one tell me one who were the skating pro's of that year ? Any skaters names also of the cast. How many years did the skating shows run before the demise of the Wellington pier?

Hi Colin, I just came across this site while looking for images of the GY roller skating show. I was in the show for 2 years around 1983/84 and it was still going strong then! If anyone has images of those later years shows please let me know. Thanks, Barry
