EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken by John Topham in 1936, showcases a heartwarming scene at the South Hospital in Dartford, Kent. In this snapshot from the past, we witness a delightful play being performed exclusively for children. The image transports us back to the era between the wars when Europe was still recovering from the aftermath of World War I. The monochrome tones add a nostalgic touch to this glimpse into history. As we observe closely, we see an audience filled with eager young faces - boys and girls alike - eagerly awaiting the start of the show. Their anticipation is palpable as they sit patiently in their seats. A woman dressed impeccably stands among them; she appears to be one of the nurses responsible for caring for these precious children. Her presence exudes warmth and compassion. In this moment frozen in time, we can almost hear laughter and applause filling the room as talented performers bring joy to these young spectators. It is evident that this play holds immense significance for both its creators and its audience. John Topham's photograph captures not only a simple act of entertainment but also serves as a reminder of how even during challenging times, communities come together to create moments of happiness for those who need it most – our children.
