I have never been a part of an audience so dominated by children between the ages of three and 12 and experienced the complete rapture that these very young people gave to the light and had special appeal for a young audience. An added feature of the National Ballet of Canada is the many young delightful bal- let students of the school who perform the children‘s roles in this ballet, usually danced by adults. Following the performance. Cindy was treated to lunch at the Royal York Hotel and a trip to Toronto Dominion Centre to view the city from the observa- tory on the 54th floor.
