<font class=b2><br><b>Máiréad</b> is co-composer of the original score for 
the dance show <b>Invasion</b>.
<br>-- &nbsp;Choreographed by Stephen C. Scariff and Ronan Morgan.
<br>-- &nbsp;Music by Máiréad Nesbitt and Tibor Kasza.
<br>-- &nbsp;Directed by Robert Alföldi.
<br>Watch this space for tour dates.
</font>

font.b2{
color:#000000;
background:transparent;
font-size:12px;
}
Is there a more suitable method for achieving the same using CSS?

Hi Bruce,
Yes, there is.
Here a possible solution using a definition list:

HTML:
<dl>
<dt><strong>Máiréad</strong> is co-composer of the original score for the 
dance show <strong>Invasion</strong>.</dt>
<dd>&#8211; &#8211; Choreographed by Stephen C. Scariff and Ronan 
Morgan.</dd>
<dd>&#8211; &#8211; Music by Máiréad Nesbitt and Tibor Kasza.</dd>
<dd>&#8211; &#8211; Directed by Robert Alföldi.</dd>
<dd>Watch this space for tour dates.</dd>
</dl>

CSS:
dl {
 color:#000;
 font-size:12px;
 }
dd {margin:0;padding:0;}

It is relevant to note that if you intend a more flexible and easy way for 
maintenance purposes you might set a background image
for the DD element instead of the &#8212; character entity.
