Might that be the fellow who you

as Picadilly Circus

It's so hard to keep them apart. I just say to myself, "Bovril = Piccadilly Circus; TKTS = Times Square."

I believe those two Siamese twin girls on the Beatty show years ago were joined head-to-head (tête-à-tête) but they didn't walk around like this.

few block walk from Piccadilly

Circus & it also has a TKTS booth

More easy Dave a circle is round

For the sequence of Sebastian's entrance, DeMille featured the Chaludi girls stacked up in the vestibule of the Virgin Car, and again with Sebastian on the lot.

The Beatty show's conjoined girls were black sisters joined at the tops of their heads, and had to maneuver bent at their waists.

Also what I love in this photo is the clear photo of the wonderful Butterfly Chairs that almost every one, who could carry one, had on the show of that era. That really brings back many memories to me.
