Hall of Famer

25 May 2009

Dan Riley with the TPSA’s Barry Snow & Tiffany Reed (Pic courtesy Trevor Fish Photography)   Hearty congratulations to Dan Riley who was one of the Inaugural Hall of Fame Inductees at the TPSA Awards held recently at Vodaworld.

Dan has been a well respected personality in the theatre and entertainment field for over 30 years.

 

In 1970 he took up a sales technician position at G E C Lighting Department who had the Strand agency. As Strand moved from company to company, Dan moved with it and has been involved in most of the theatre installations in South Africa and neighbouring states, making countless friends in the industry along the way.  Dan is the father to Duncan and Bruce who have followed in his footsteps.

 

Follow the sound of laughter and you’ll find Dan, a devoted family man married to Linda. His spirit of adventure has seen him show-jumping, motorcycling, boating, 4 x 4ing and the latest hair-raising sport…that of being a grandfather!

A special word of thanks extends to the TPSA Committee for a much enjoyed event.
