Scope and content

A photograph of cast members and orchestra of 'Mexican Gold', an original show produced at the 'Empire Theatre', Stalag IVB in January-February 1945. The female roles are played by male prisoners, including the role of 'Marquita Alvez', played by ballad-tenor Emrys W. Evans (in profile, underneath the hanging basket). The space below the stage in this theatre was used for the concealment of maps and other escape equipment.
