An original theatre programme for the revue A La Carte at the Savoy Theatre, London, from July 1948. The cast includes Marcel Le Bon, Gordon Bell, Henry Kendal, Hermione Baddedley, Irlin Hall and Peter Wright.
Intimate revue, with its quick-fire sketches, songs and topical satire, was hugely popular in the West End in the years after the war. A stylish slice of post-war entertainment and a fine example of 1940s old theatre programmes.
