TO BEGIN AT THE BEGINNING

This is the earliest item in the McKenna archive.  A programme from Christmas 1942 for a production of The Yeoman of the Guard at TP's school, St.Pat's in Cavan.  It was his first stage part and, in the role of 'Elsie Maynard (A Strolling Singer)' he is billed as 'Thomas P McKenna'. 

There is another McKenna in the cast but he was not related.
