(Later sadly due to the usual political interference, the portrait of the man who had saved the building from certain demolition, was quietly removed and replaced by a simple framed hanging mirror. The hanging mirror has now been replaced with a stained-glass window, honouring three well known Eastern Cape actors and playwrights - [[Athol Fugard]], [[Winston Ntshona]] and [[John Kani]]).
 In 1987 becomes one of the first five recipients of the [[SACPAC]] Honours Award for his contirbution to the entertainment industry in South Africa.
