Thomian Society of Colombo Dinner Theatre , a resplendent evening

A distinguished gathering of old Thomians from S. Thomas College, Mount Lavinia, Gurutalawa, Bandarawela and S. Thomas' Preparatory School, Kollupitiya had what was described by many of those present as 'one of the most memorable times' in their lives a fortnight ago at the Ballroom of the Ceylon Continental Hotel.

Founder / President of the Thomian Society of Colombo, Dr. Vijaya Corea, was indeed gleeful as he conducted many draws that gave away extremely valuable prizes including a Padmaraga Stone, which was said to be the next best thing to a diamond, and a return air ticket to Singapore. Tickets selling like hot cakes have become a hallmark of the activities of the Thomian Society of Colombo - a matter of pride for the entire membership.

The evening began with friendship and chatter and the clinking of glasses to the sound of 'cheers' as old Thomians, their guests and friends mingled with unprecedented cordiality.

Then, with each in his and her seat, heads turned as the theatre was about to begin. Actor, Wilson Gunaratne, fulfilled all expectations as the two dramas produced ripples of laughter that enhanced the degree of relaxation that had already begun to fill the air. The sit-down dinner was sumptuous. The fellowship was excellent. The Dinner Theatre of the Thomian Society of Colombo enjoyed the distinction of remaining an evening to remember.
