The 2000
Olympic Games in Sydney have been hailed as a huge success. The first time
that The Games were held in Australia was in Melbourne in 1956. In
November that year, Melbourne's much-loved Tivoli Theatre re-opened after
an extensive refurbishment with:
Olympic Follies, David N. Martin extravaganza, is being presented as one of Melbourne's major attractions at the time of the Olympic Games, so we therefore welcome Olympic visitors to Melbourne and to the Tivoli, and as our tribute to a memorable occasion we ask you to sit back and enjoy "Olympic Follies."The CATHS website proudly presents a special Showcase Feature on the Olympic Follies at the Tivoli. Click here and take a trip down memory lane to one of Australia's most famous vaudeville and variety theatre venues. Sadly, the 'Tiv' was demolished after a fire in 1967. |
