Title
Shop buildings in Strand
Description
View of shop buildings at 56-64 Strand, Covent Garden, looking east from Agar Street. A branch of shoe retailer Saxone occupies three single-storey shop units from 56-58. A sign on scaffolding on a site to the left, which is set back from other buildings, reads: "Strand Widening. New building for Saxone Shoe Co. Shop and upper floor to be let." Posters on hoardings around the site advertise shows at the New and Garrick Theatres as well as The Daily Express newspaper. A sign on the side of the Tivoli Theatre on the left of the image advertises The Vaudeville Theatre with an arrow pointing to the other side of Strand. It advertises The Creaking Chair by Allene Tupper Wilkes, one of the last plays performed at the Vaudeville before its closure for remodelling. The play opened in November 1924 and closed in January 1925. None of the buildings now exist and later commercial buildings occupy the sites.
