Granville Theatre, Walham Green, London

Advertised in the Fulham Chronicle, 8 October 1915: ‘Special Engagement of Kitts and Windrum Company, who present “The Slacker”’. Also: ‘A unique item took place at the Granville Theatre of Varieties, Walham Green, last Friday evening at the first house. The occasion was the playing of the Regimental Silver Band of the 3/7th Battalion London Regiment, better known as the “Shiny Seventh” … Another item appropriate to the occasion was a very successful dream play entitled “The Slacker,” presented by Mr. Charles Kitts and Miss Rhoda Windrum. This sketch showed that it is only when men realise that there is danger - such as a Zeppelin raid in the play - that they wake up to the occasion and enlist. This performance visibly impressed the large audience which had attended to see the Band play' (West London Observer, Friday 22 October 1915).
