May 7, 2003
- I am devising a directory of all past members
of Sea Containers and this will be accessible from the Alumni
link in the left hand column.
I have so far uploaded
more than 150 names, including the very first Who's Who (two
typewritten sheets) of personnel located at Old Jewry in 1969.,
plus a musically accompanied parody of the Modern Major General
from the 1974 Christmas cabaret, that incorporated the names of
every staff member at that time.
I
would be really grateful if you could let me have information
about any of the people appearing on these lists - [Joe
Sinclair - contact details in LH column] - and please draw this
website to the attention of any old staff members.
April
2, 2003 - Bernie Bird has promised
some pictures and stories shortly. Keep tuned in!
