Hi , Does anyone remember "The Checkers Concert Party"

We used to do concert all over Notts.

We even did a show at The Nottingham Albert Hall.

This was 1944 to 1950 ish.

They were all local kids, they, the girls, wore red and white dresses.

I compared it a few times and sang.

My Father and another man,  I think his name was Bill,  used to run it.

Welcome jds .

Searched the local newspaper archives for "Checkers Concert Party" and nothing comes up for Notts.

 

Doesn't help you but the name does come up in other parts of the country , especially Kent , during the 1920/30s. Was it some sort of national franchise ?
