• Vesna Verencevic said:

  These two dancers have very interesting costumes. Most likely some traditional. My research could not reveal much. I would like to know more.

• Annette Cadell said:

  Interesting that she is wearing heels. I wonder if they are performing a flamenco dance. A Spanish look to the costumes.

  "WILDFLOWER" REVIVAL
  Joyous Night At Theatre Royal
  
  Joyous memories, of 14 years ago were recalled to a crowded house at the Theatre Royal last night by the revival of "Wildflower."
  
  Marie Burke, the original star, was again in the lead, and Marie le Varre, another of the old cast, was highly popular as Lucrezia, the wife whom the lawyer could not get rid of. Melton Moore took the part of the lover who was successful in the end. George Dobbs was a "scream" as Gaston la Roche, the talkative lawyer, and Don Nicol had a hilarious time as Gabrielle, the lover who had an encounter with the donkey.
  
  The old strains of "Bambalina" and "Wildflower" haunted the night, and Marie Burke's singing of "You Can't Blame a Girl For Dreaming" was particularly enjoyable. Another number that was loudly applauded was "The World's Worst Women," by Marie la Varre and Don Nicol. Specialty dances by Tamara Tchinarova and Valentin Zeglovsky were given in the ballroom, which had a beautiful outlook over a river.

  This was only days before Germany invaded Poland on 1 Sept 1939, in case anyone needed reminding!
