Tools‘Honorary Doctor of Letters Degree for George Bailey’The Crosstown Carnival Committee is seeking to have the relevant authorities bestow an Honorary Doctor of Letters Degree posthumously on the late George Bailey {1933-1970} as a fitting tribute to his legacy. George Bailey, is the man many masqueraders, designers, commentators, and spectators consider the greatest bandleader Trinidad Carnival has yet known. Early on, his friends dubbed him “Sir George” and in most accounts of his life and career there is an air of nobility about his personality and his art, he was certainly a prodigy. All attempts to get at the root of the Bailey magic have failed. Whatever charisma or formula or greatness was associated with the Bailey name came first from the man that Bailey was.’ The Crosstown Carnival Committee is an ensemble of performing Artists and Theatrical Technicians devoted to the development and resurrection of Traditional Mas and Carnival in East Port of Spain. |
