EDITORS COMMENTS
Revue at the London Hippodrome: Knitting and Sewing Scene, 1914 Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, the London Hippodrome played host to a unique and poignant revue titled "Business as Usual." This photograph captures a poignant scene from the production, showcasing the spirit of community and resilience in the face of adversity. At the heart of the scene, a vicar stands before a group of earnest ladies, all intently focused on their knitting and sewing. The women, dressed in their Sunday best, are busy creating comforts for the troops, their faces a mix of determination and compassion. The vicar, with a sense of gravity and pride, addresses the group, likely offering words of encouragement and gratitude for their selfless efforts. The stage is adorned with an array of woolly creations, from knitted scarves and hats to sewn blankets and socks. The women work diligently, their hands moving nimbly over their needles and thimbles, their machines humming softly in the background. The atmosphere is one of camaraderie and purpose, as these women, united by their shared cause, come together to make a difference. This scene serves as a powerful reminder of the roles women played during the war, both on the home front and in the theatre. "Business as Usual" was just one of many revues that provided much-needed entertainment for Londoners during this time, while also raising awareness and funds for various war efforts. The knitting and sewing scene, in particular, underscores the importance of community and the transformative power of art and creativity in times of hardship. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to a time when the world was forever changed by the events of the First World War. The image stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of humanity and the power of collective action, making it an invaluable piece of both theatrical and historical significance.
