EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo captures a heartwarming moment in the Day Nursery Theatre, located in Guildford, Surrey during the early 1940s. The young children, aged two to five, are seen rehearsing for their New Year performance with their very own orchestral accompaniment. These talented performers are preparing to showcase their skills to an audience of mothers who will attend a special performance of Simple Simon: Ride a cock-horse etc. within the nursery. The image exudes innocence and joy as these little actors bring nursery rhymes to life on stage. Their tiny faces radiate enthusiasm and determination as they deliver their lines flawlessly. The band adds an extra layer of drama by emphasizing key moments throughout the performance. Set against the backdrop of World War II, this snapshot offers a glimpse into the resilience and creativity that flourished even amidst conflict. It is evident that despite challenging times, nurturing environments like day nurseries provided solace for both children and parents alike. Photographer David Maclellan beautifully captures this precious moment frozen in time - a testament to childhood innocence and the power of artistic expression during turbulent times. This photograph serves as a reminder of how even in periods marked by strife, communities come together to create moments of joy and celebration for those who need it most - our youngest generation.
