Presentation House 70s Disco Party

THE new theatre season is underway and there's some great local entertainment to be found. North Vancouver's Presentation House Theatre (located at 333 Chesterfield) started things off in groovy style by holding a "70's Disco Party in the House" season opening bash on September 30. There was games, prizes, food, dancing and live music to entertain everyone. Check out the new fall lineup of plays or phone the theatre for more information at990-3474.
