From Tim Tegge #1


Attached are two images from RBBB @ Soldier's Field, in 1944.

The first, rehearsals for the show, taken by a photographer for the Chicago Tribune. This ran on Aug. 22, 1944, in the paper.

They are rehearsing the Changing of the Guard, a British number that they work kilts and busbys hats like the guards do at Buckingham Palace. I would not have recognized the photo as Soldiers Field as the arena looks smaller. I know they did open the first showing without the tent in Akron, Ohio at the Rubber Bowl. Jackie LeClaire
