EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1965, we are transported back in time to witness the enchanting world of theater and cultural exchange. A couple of talented actors, Francine Raymond and Jacques Primeau, dressed as an Indian Chief and his Squaw, grace us with their presence outside New Zealand House after a press conference. They are part of the esteemed Canadian National Folk Ensemble, currently showcasing their talents in the renowned show Les Fux Follets at London's Piccadilly Theatre. The occasion for this press conference is none other than the Commonwealth Arts Festival, where artists from around the globe gather to celebrate diverse traditions and artistic expressions. The vibrant costumes worn by Francine and Jacques reflect not only their incredible acting skills but also pay homage to Native American customs. As they step out onto the bustling streets of London, a black cab awaits them - a symbol of quintessential British transportation. This juxtaposition highlights how art transcends borders and brings cultures together. With another week left for their performance at Piccadilly Theatre, these dancers continue to captivate audiences with their mesmerizing moves and authentic portrayals. Their dedication to preserving traditions through entertainment is truly commendable. Thanks to Alisdair Macdonald's lens capturing this momentous event on Memory Lane Prints, we can relish in the beauty of this snapshot from history – a testament to the power of theater in fostering cross-cultural understanding during one unforgettable era: the swinging sixties.
