This book authored by Rathna Sheila Perera, with great effort, contains very important past memories. She has compiled this book by obtaining facts unknown and using the source material that she has been able to gather through her involvement in the field. It is quite natural that when a period of a live medium such as theatre gradually goes into oblivion, it gets buried in the sands of time. Therefore, this book is an innovative outcome of a writer much dedicated to this particular field.
