In 1984 the company joined with Ralph Holness Productions and produced a drama titled " SCANDAL"  . The play opened in Ocho Rios and later re-opened at the Palladium Theater in Montego Bay , toured rural Jamaica before a more than overwhelming opening at the Ward Theater in Kingston , where it continued it successful run , playing  six sold out performances weekly , for two years , stopping only to allow the national pantomime to do it's annual run . The play made headline in the national paper .

"SCANDAL"  went on to break every box office record set by every show in the Caribbean  .
