YVONNE CHESTERS ACT is very selective as to who it inducts into the 'Hall of Fame'. The person I am about to announce has brought glitter and creditability to our still fledgling but rapidly growing Association. We recognise someone who has a lifetimes dedication to the world of 'Dance' - well not quite a whole lifetime because we know they have more to add and it didn’t commence until the age of Two Years when they first learnt how to 'Step, Ball Change'. Since the age of two our inductee has never ceased to develop her own talent and pass this on to generations since. All of which has embraced both Amateur and Professional Theatre. This wonderful lady at the age of 4 was entertaining British and American Servicemen during the Second World War with 'Song and Dance'. Later she worked as a full time professional Singer and Dancer from the age of 12 making numerous appearances on both Radio and Television. Add to this from the age of 14 years she was teaching in her own Dance School at the same time as Directing both Professional and Amateur Theatre. And now with over 70 years dedication to LyceumTheatre and Directing numerous large scale Amateur and Professional productions and not forgetting the Thousands of Pounds raised for Charity - It is now my privilege to announce that ACT are proud to include in the Hall of Fame - Yvonne Chesters.
