Summer holiday programme 1976. Most frames show a group of people, including a man in drag (wearing a woman's corset and a beret, carrying a handbag), parading through Newtown streets. He stops to talk to people along the route, and in the end (frame 12) appears like the Pied Piper leading a crowd of children. Frame 5 shows an Indian man pushing his toddler along the pavement in a pushchair. Frame 6 shows two musicians, one with drum (wearing a label "City of Wellington Lowland Pipe Band"), the other with bagpipes. Frame 7 shows a group of people standing inside a picket fence outside a villa with a road sign on the right to the Mans[field Street] Gospel Hall. Unless otherwise stated, all persons are unidentified. Photographs taken by Ans Westra.
