EDITORS COMMENTS
This print commemorates the Third Canadian Division Concert Party's production titled "The Dumbells: A Journey from Poperinghe to the Somme." The programme, penned by Sergeant E.G. Charter, offers an intriguing insight into the theatrical experience that took place somewhere in France during World War I. The Dumbells, a popular and much-loved part of military life, provided a welcome respite from the harsh realities of the battlefield. This concert party's programme, entitled "Battle of Somme-Area," promises an entertaining and engaging journey through the events leading up to the Battle of the Somme. The production covers the journey from Poperinghe, a small town in Belgium, to the Somme region in France. The programme includes a fascinating commentary on a Kit Inspection sketch, adding a touch of humor and lightheartedness to the military setting. The soldiers' daily routine of kit inspections was a necessary yet tedious task, and the Concert Party cleverly transformed it into an amusing performance for their comrades. Sergeant Charter's meticulous writing and the artistic depiction of the scene in this commemorative art piece transport us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the unique ways in which the soldiers of the Third Canadian Division found joy and camaraderie amidst the challenges of war. This topographical and historical print offers a valuable glimpse into the military life during World War I, reminding us of the resilience, creativity, and spirit of those who served.
