Picture No 12916271
Date 1925
Description The Hoffman Girls in rehearsals
Details

The Hoffman Girls, the dance troupe founded, managed and choreographed by Gertrude Hoffman, pictured in rehearsals for Leap Year which had had a successful run at the London Hippodrome and was moving on to the Palace Theatre in Manchester. As the original Leap Year dancers had been contracted to give a show at the Folies Bergere in Paris, Hoffman recruited a new set for the Manchester revue. They are pictured here in the gymnasium practising for part of their act which required them to climb and hang from webbing.
