EDITORS COMMENTS
A Captivating Moment at the 1922 World Dancing Championship: Victor Silvester and Phyllis Clarke Reign Supreme at Queens Hall, London Step back in time to the roaring twenties and experience the magic of the 1922 World Dancing Championship held at the prestigious Queens Hall Rooms in London from December 21-29, 1922. This photograph encapsulates the essence of an era defined by jazz, age, and the art of ballroom dancing. Top left, we find Victor Silvester and Phyllis Clarke, the undisputed champions of the World Dancing Championship. Their radiant smiles and effortless movements reflect the pure joy and passion they share for their craft. Victor Silvester, a renowned dancer and later a popular bandleader, led Phyllis Clarke, a talented dancer and actress, to victory in the most prestigious dance competition of the time. On the top right, we see the winners of the Amateur Championship and second place finishers in the World Championship, Cecil Reuben and Flora Le Breton. Their youthful energy and determination are evident in their poses, as they proudly display their awards. Cecil Reuben, a promising young dancer, and Flora Le Breton, an accomplished amateur, showcased their exceptional skills and grace on the dance floor. This photograph, taken in 1923, offers a glimpse into the world of ballroom dancing during the 1920s. The elegance, excitement, and camaraderie of the event are beautifully captured, making it an invaluable piece of dance history.
