THE CEMETARY CLUB was the last play put on at the Tivoli Theatre. For almost two years we had performed here and although it was only ever a temporary location, the Tivoli at Canning Bridge had become a part of the history of our club.

When the opportunity came along to move Harbour Theatre back to Fremantle, the decision was quickly made to take up the option of a lease with the Fremantle Education Centre to occupy some available space in the Princess May Building. With no help from anyone, approximately $30,000 of our own money was spent, in the space of 7-8 weeks, on materials to convert the school hall into a new home for Harbour Theatre. Once again the members laboured to build and install a stage, tiered seating, procenium arch, lighting, sound and all the other things necessary for a functioning theatre. And all this while rehearsing for the next production!

There were times when the spectre of doubt crept in as to whether or not we would be ready to go up for our first performance, but with a bit of luck, and many hours toil into the nights, the traditional quote of "The show must go on" was once again realised.

So starts another chapter in the history of Harbour Theatre, and it is hoped that this will be as successful as the ones already written..
