Re-Opening of Gaiety Theatre. Invitation to Lord Mayor.

An invitation to the Lord Mayor of Dublin to attend the performance that re-opened the Gaiety on the 25th of November 1955. The Gaiety had been forced to close ten months previously when Dublin Corporation condemned the upper circle balcony as unsafe. The auditorium had to be redesigned with safer exits before the Gaiety could re-open. Denis Larkin, son of the famous labour activist Jim Larkin, was Lord Mayor at the time.
