Patrons have a last opportunity to view Link Show 36 tonight and tomorrow evening at the National Culture Centre.

The 36th edition of the show opened on the weekend of July 1 and was held over last weekend as well.

The Link Show started in November 1981 but missed a few years during its 41-year lifespan and is now in its 36th production.
