Dear Prof Borges, That's right! Below is an extract from Dr Rafael Fernandes' PhD thesis on the tiatr:
Caetano Manuel Pereira was the baptismal name of Kid Boxer who was born on February 17, 1917 at Siolim, Goa. His childhood naughtiness earned him the nickname ‘Boxer’ which was adapted to the stage name of Kid Boxer. He was a member of the famous Kid-Young-Rod trio. The second member was Young Menezes, a jet-speed singer, who once sang a self-composed song of 500 words without pausing to renew his breath. Minguel Rod, one of the greatest Konkani tiatrists, completed the triumvirate. FN On 6 March 2010 11:35, Sebastian Borges <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Fred, > Yes, it was a plain guess.
