EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the spirit of fun and camaraderie among the Gay Cadets of Bournemouth, specifically the Birchmore and Lindens units, during the 1920s. The image shows a lively scene of naval-themed revue performance on West Beach, with the cadets dressed in their smart navy uniforms and flannel trousers. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as the cadets prepare to put on a show for the audience. The Gay Cadets were a popular and long-standing tradition in Bournemouth, with their annual revues being a much-loved feature of the town's social calendar. These shows were a unique blend of music, dance, and comedy, with the cadets taking on various roles, from actors to dancers, to entertain the crowds. The photograph captures a moment of pure joy and playfulness, with the cadets striking poses and laughing together. The sense of community and friendship is palpable, making this image a delightful snapshot of a bygone era. The naval theme of the revue is reflected in the uniforms and props, adding to the overall sense of fun and adventure. The Gay Cadets' performances were a highlight of Bournemouth's summer season, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the vibrant and inclusive culture of the town during the 1920s. It is a reminder of the importance of community, friendship, and the power of the arts to bring people together, even in the most unexpected of places.
