Torrid Taps (3/27/1941)

"The Torrid Taps" was one of many acts on display at the "Georgiantics '41: A Musical Revue". According to the program, it was presented by the students of Sir George Williams College at Victor Hall in Montreal on March 27, 28 and 29 of 1941.

 

This particular number featured my mother, second from the right. The music for "Torrid Taps" was writen by her first husband, Fred. He also played the piano and directed the production, as well as writing much of the music and lyrics.

 

Mom was featured in two numbers, this one which closed the first act, as well as the first act opener called "Georgiantics '41"

 

She was 19 years old at this time and practically living with Fred, although they did not get married until the end of WWII.
