Variety Acts And Turns Of The Second World War

dark days of war.
Featuring balancing acts, strongmen, comedians, musicians and singers including Flanagan & Allen, Gracie Fields, Robb Wilton, Sydney Burchall, Tommy Trinder, Peter Sinclair, Vera Lynn, Max Wall, Joe Loss, Cyril Fletcher, Tommy Handley and Mantovani among many, many more!
This release also celebrates the wartime work of ENSA - the 'Entertainments National
