EDITORS COMMENTS
This theatrical portrait captures the charming and defiant spirit of the Kensington Girls during wartime, as depicted in the Gate Theatre Revue's new edition at the Ambassadors Theatre in 1939. The actresses Kay Young as Cora, Joan Swinstead as Belinda, and Gabrielle Brune as Celia are seen here enjoying a moment of respite from their performances, donning furs, gloves, and hats while sipping coffee from delicate cups at a quaint table. The image, taken during the late 1930s, reflects the unique blend of elegance and wartime determination that characterized the era. The Gate Theatre Revue, with its lighthearted and satirical take on current events, served as a valuable morale booster for London audiences amidst the uncertainty and hardships of World War II. The captivating trio, with their captivating performances, brought joy and laughter to the people of London during these challenging times.
