Happy 70th birthday to Norah Button - and her beloved theatre school

Norah Button

Does she still dance herself? “I am not quite as nimble as I was, though I like to think I am,” she says. “You know, you are gasping a bit at the end of it. I never used to gasp.”

There could be some anthro-pologist out there interested to know what happens when you mix red hair, freckles and Irish blood with the surname Button. The answer is smiling at us now. She’s a maker of stars.
