It’s Show Time! Last night I took the salon girls, Grace, Doreen, Anne-Marie and Lucy out to see a Variety Show at the Hackney Empire. We all had such a swell time! During the opening number one of the chorus girls lost her shoe during the high kicks routine! Doreen thought that the ventriloquist looked like her brother-in-law and Nino The Wonder Dog was such a cute, clever pup. Curiously, no one was entirely sure if the animal hypnotist was a Mister or a Miss!
It was hardly surprising that the headline act, Lola Falana, captured my imagination. The stylish songstress certainly measured up to her bill matter “The Sultry Siren”. Such a captivating, exotic performance and delivered so provocatively in a style that’s wonderfully ‘à la mode’. Lola found her fame in the nightclubs of Munich and Berlin back in the thirties. Before the war, Lola fled from Germany to bring her grace and style to our English stage. Bravo Lola! What an inspiring picture of elegance, wearing a fabulous black satin gown. Definitely my cup of tea!
