EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the GWR Operatic Show - 'Virginia' in 1937. Fifteen glamorous members of the GWR Operatic Society are beautifully showcased, radiating elegance and talent. Among them, on the bottom row far left, stand Marjorie Colman and Dorothy Challis, two sisters who worked as clerks at Swindon Works. The GWR was not only renowned for its railway services but also for its support of various clubs and societies. The GWR Operatic Society was one such group that flourished under their patronage. This photograph serves as a testament to the vibrant entertainment scene during this era. It is worth noting that by 1937, Marjorie had tied the knot and would have relinquished her role as a clerk. However, being married to a GWR employee allowed her to continue enjoying the privileges offered by these clubs and societies. The women depicted here exude confidence and poise, embodying the spirit of opera in all its glory. Their dedication to their craft shines through each carefully curated costume piece they wear. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to an era where music filled hearts with joy and performances like 'Virginia' captivated audiences night after night. It is a reminder of how art has always been an integral part of our lives; bringing people together across time and space with its timeless beauty.
