EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of unity and patriotism during the early days of the First World War, as actresses from the Alhambra Theatre in London came together for a symbolic representation of the Allied powers in their final scene of the revue, 'Not Likely,' in September 1914. The actresses, dressed in elaborate costumes, portrayed the countries of Russia (Miss Thorp), Belgium (Miss Woodger), Britain (Britannia, played by Miss Dick), and France (Miss Sullivan), standing proudly before an audience eager to show their support for their respective homelands. As the war raged on at the front, the stage became a vital platform for expressing national pride and boosting morale. The pageantry of the revue, with its elaborate costumes and symbolic representations, offered a momentary escape from the harsh realities of the conflict. The actresses' powerful performances resonated with audiences, who were inspired by the strength and unity of the Allied forces. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the role that entertainment played during the First World War, providing a much-needed sense of hope and unity during a time of great turmoil. The image of these actresses, dressed in their national costumes, stands as a testament to the enduring power of the arts to bring people together and inspire courage and resilience in the face of adversity.
