Looking for Information on early Dramafests!
Sun, 18 Oct 2009, 05:15 pmI'm compiling a check list of the venues and Adjudicators for the State One-Act Drama Festival as it was originally known (now Dramafest)
As far as I can see it started in more or less its current form in 1984 at the Wanneroo Shire Hall with Simon Phillips as Adjudicator.
I don' have the information on the 1985 one, and a note on the info from the 1986 one says "first ITA run Festival" it was held at Hackett Hall with Geoff Gibbs. Was that the Playlovers venue or the UWA Hackett Hall????
1988 is also a blank and I'm missing the Adjudicator for 1993 at Roleystone.
Please can any kind person with a good memory or some old programmes fill in the blanks.
Many thanks, Norma Davis (ITA)

I now have the correct list from 1986 onwards, which appears to be the year that ITA 'took over' the running of same and it became an annual event.
Prior to that it would appear to have been held every two years and I do have some information on 1980.1982.1984, but further back than that????????????
Thanks To Lynne Devenish and Penny Searle who have given me some background to the earlier events.
all tid-bits are welcome thank you!
Norma.
