Astor Matinee & Dance

This was a premier event that attracted 400 people to the Astor Theatre in Mt Lawley.

It was held as a fund raiser for the festival and turned out to be a major success.

Everyone was treated to a rare showing of the "Blackboard Jungle" - the RocknRoll movie that started it all. They also got to see:

  • A swing dance demo.
  • Pretty usherettes serving free popcorn.
  • RocknRoll dance performance.
  • Music by the Roadmasters.
  • Guest artists including Brenton Fosdike, Kelly Green and Peter Anderson.
  • Special guest appearance by "Dame Edna".
  • Radio jock Neville Limpus did a fine job as MC.
  • And tons of Rock and Roll dance floor fun.

Great atmosphere was created by the many people who made an effort to dress up in 50's style costume.
