EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the iconic Windmill Theatre in Piccadilly Circus during its heyday. The image showcases a scene from Revudeville No 65, Desden China, a popular revue that graced the stage in 1932. The photograph, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the vibrant history of London's entertainment scene. It beautifully illustrates one of the tableau performances featured in Revudeville souvenir nos 101-114. The Windmill Theatre was known for pushing boundaries with its daring shows that combined dance, music, and theatrical performances. This particular image hints at both elegance and sensuality as it portrays a group of girls dancing gracefully on stage. Steeped in nostalgia, this snapshot transports us back to Soho's golden era when Laura Henderson owned and managed this legendary venue. The Windmill Theatre became synonymous with artistic freedom and self-expression during a time when nudity on stage was considered scandalous. As we admire this piece of artistry frozen in time, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage embedded within London's streets. It serves as a testament to how entertainment has evolved throughout history while also celebrating the enduring legacy left behind by establishments like the Windmill Theatre.
