broadley300By sheer coincidence, Bob and fellow recipient Robert Broadley were students just one year apart at Canterbury Boys High School, and are long-term friends. In 1968, after involvement with several other companies, Robert founded Strathfield Light Opera Company, the predecessor of the current Strathfield Musical Society, a company which staged as many as ten shows a year. Robert was director and producer of the company, one of Sydney’s finest at the time, until his retirement.
