Other stuff in this issue:-Front cover and main article concerning black theatre in the North West.

We used to go to the old Victorian baths in Blackfriars and I think it was the first time I ever saw cockroaches of the large variety, mostly on their last legs, doing the back stroke across the pool.

The National Front fielding a candidate in the Blackley bi-election.
Simply Red settling on their new name after being called"Just Red" and "All Red";bit of a recurring theme there....
