  nla.gov.au/nla.obj-465003993/view - Pix, 2nd June, 1951...looks like the same ballerina appears on the cover of this issue of Pix... Just going on the note that appears on p. 5, the ballerina is Peggy Sager...who played the role of the Ballerina in Stravinsky's Petrouchka...in the SLNSW pic she's with Petrouchka, who was evidently played by Martin Rubinstein...who appears in the Pix article on p.11...

  The most significant advancement came with the construction in 1888 of Her Imperial Majesty’s Opera House (later known as Her Majesty’s Theatre). The theatre was lit with electricity and seated 2,700 people. Her Majesty’s Theatre became the principal venue for major performances in Brisbane for opera, musicals and ballet for almost a century.

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Queensland Latvians started to gather together in 1949 in church services. The first church service for Latvians was held on November 24, 1949, in the German language by Minister Ramer. 54 Latvians attended the church service. On January 14, 1950, mixed choir was founded under the leadership of E.Kalums. In 1950 E.Kalums founded Brisbane Latvians’ choir and men double quartet. On January 28 and March 18, 1950 Latvian meetings were organised, where the participants decided to call the Brisbane Latvian Association’s foundation meeting. The association established a mixed choir „Beverīna”, a library, arranged Latvians’ House. In 1950 the BLA theatre group started its work. In 1954 the theatre group was taken over by Daugavas Vanagi (Daugava Hawks). In October of 1951, the BLA founded the folk dance group “Senatne” (Olden Times) with 14 participants. Its leader was Gaida Stendere and pianist Maksimilians Sprīvulis. The number of dancers rapidly grew. “Senatne” participated in many events in Brisbane and the whole of Australia. With reducing in the number of participants “Senatne” ended its existence in 2000. Source: www.rlb.lv/latvian-organizations-and-schools-abroad/brisb...
