Three Radiant Stars of the London Stage: Violet Howard, Mary Leigh, and Dorothy Hurst This photograph captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties in London's vibrant theatrical world, as it showcases three of the era's most celebrated dancers: Violet Howard, Mary Leigh, and Dorothy Hurst. Violet Howard, the elegant dancer on the left, graces the stage of the Kings Theatre in Hammersmith, where she enchants audiences with her performance in the exotic production of Aladdin. Her youthful exuberance and graceful movements embody the spirit of jazz that swept through the city during the 1920s. Mary Leigh, the vivacious dancer in the center, steals the limelight at the Vaudeville Theatre with her lively rendition of Snap. Her infectious energy and charisma captivate the audience, making her an indispensable part of London's burgeoning cabaret scene. On the right, Dorothy Hurst, the sultry and alluring performer, mesmerizes audiences at the Hotel Metropole's Midnight Follies cabaret show. Her magnetic stage presence and daring dance moves leave a lasting impression on all who witness her performances, solidifying her status as a leading figure in London's theatrical world. This photograph, taken in 1923, offers a glimpse into the world of London's jazz age, where the stage was alive with the energy and excitement of the era's most talented performers. Violet Howard, Mary Leigh, and Dorothy Hurst, each in their own right, epitomize the spirit of the 1920s and the indelible impact they left on the world of dance and theatre.
