EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a memorable moment in time at the Worthing Pier Pavilion during the 1920s. The Co-Optimists, a popular and renowned variety revue from London, graced the stage with their electrifying performances. The Co-Optimists were known for their unique blend of music, dance, comedy, and acrobatics, and their cast was a veritable who's who of British entertainment. Front and center, we see Laddie Cliff, a charismatic comedian and dancer, striking a pose for the audience. Elsa Macfarlane, a beautiful and talented singer, can be seen in the background, her voice no doubt enchanting the crowd. Stanley Holloway, a future star of stage and screen, is also present, his expressive face a testament to his acting abilities. Davy Burnaby, Melville Gideon, Babs Valerie, Betty Chester, Phyllis Monkman, and H B Hedley complete the lineup, each bringing their own talents to the table. The Worthing Pier Pavilion, a grand and ornate structure, serves as the perfect backdrop for this lively scene. The pier, which stretches out into the English Channel, has been a popular destination for visitors since the late 1800s, and the pier pavilion, with its art deco design and elegant architecture, was a must-see attraction in its own right. This photograph transports us back to a bygone era, a time of glamour, excitement, and innovation. The Co-Optimists' performances at the Worthing Pier Pavilion were just one of many highlights of the 1920s, a decade that continues to captivate us with its rich history and cultural significance.
