Kay Windsor second from left in this photo was with the John Tiller Girls 1945 to 1950 This photo of Kay is labelled as Alfred Blacks Sky High from her photo album, kindly sent by her daughter Jane Dalton Aladdin at the Embassy Theatre Peterborough early 1950's The Tiller Girls during rehearsal for the 1959 show Clown Jewels with members of the Crazy Gang. Maidens in Waiting by Bert Hardy This great photograph taken by Bert Hardy about 1954 of Tiller Girls on Blackpool Beach recently sold for £2000 at auction. Evidently Hardy was looking for subjects to photograph, he went to the Pavilion Theatre and asked four Tiller Girls from the show if they would pose. He took a number of photos on the beach of all four girls as well as this one. Should anyone know the girls who posed for these photographs it would be great to put some names to the faces and hear the full story from them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The elder lady in this photograph is called Miriam she was a Tiller Girl who stayed in America and married after dancing there with the Tiller's. She returned to this country on Holiday and met the Tiller Girls again we think at the London Palladium and made the pages of the Daily Mirror who supplied this photo to her family. I am not sure when the photo was taken or who the dancers in the photo might be, I would love to know more about this. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1950's Tiller Girls Back row, left to right: Unknown, unknown, Jean Perry, unknown, Maureen Hearn, Christine Bevis (me), Shirley Knight, Rosemary Lucas, Jacqueline Fleming, Nadine Brear, Pamela Payne.
