Non-stop ! The famous Windmill Theatre girls work hard, but they know how to play

Non-stop !
The famous Windmill Theatre girls work hard, but they know how to play when they get a brief break between shows. Londons own beach by the Thames at Tower Bridge is near enough to the theatre for the girls to change into swimsuits and enjoy a brief breather with hundreds of Londoners who are enjoying a spell of early summer. Picture shows left-to-right Josephine Hamlett, Jill Anstey, Anita D Ray, Avril Amos, Toni Leighton and Mavis Greenaway springing on the beach as the Tower Bridge go up in the background.
30 May 1947

EDITORS COMMENTS
Non-stop! The famous Windmill Theatre girls work hard, but they know how to play when they get a brief break between shows. London's own beach by the Thames at Tower Bridge is near enough to the theatre for the girls to change into swimsuits and enjoy a brief breather with hundreds of Londoners who are enjoying a spell of early summer. In this print from May 30,1947, we see six vibrant women springing on the sandy beach as the iconic Tower Bridge rises in the background. Josephine Hamlett, Jill Anstey, Anita D Ray, Avril Amos, Toni Leighton and Mavis Greenaway can be seen hand in hand, exuding pure joy and infectious energy. The image captures a moment frozen in time - an era where women embraced their freedom amidst post-war challenges. These remarkable ladies not only entertained audiences with their performances at Windmill Theatre but also found solace in each other's company during these precious moments of respite. With its fun-filled atmosphere and nostalgic charm, this photograph transports us back to a simpler time when laughter echoed along the shores of London's riverside beaches. It serves as a reminder that even amidst demanding schedules and responsibilities, it is essential to take breaks and relish life's simple pleasures. This delightful snapshot encapsulates both the spirit of camaraderie among these talented performers and showcases London's unique blend of entertainment culture against its picturesque backdrop.
