The first I heard of Mrs. Duff's choir was at last year's Beach Reunion at the Dynes when one the participants showed me a photo of a girls choir that Marjorie Duff lead. Member Crawfish has sent in a programme and a photo of the ladies choir. He also attached this message, a little more Beach history from Crawfish.
"Attached is the programme for the Beach Ladies' Choir Festival. This whole show was organized by Marjorie Duff who was a central figure in the cultural activities of the Beach for many years. She taught piano and voice and ran the Benjamin Bunny Kindergarten and raised a talented artist named Paul Duff. In the inside pages you will see ads for many familiar enterprises on the Beach and the participants are all familiar old names to the Beach of the 40's. Much to my regret, at the time, even I was performing as a little pig in the play by the kids from the kindergarten. I have a picture of my costume which I only share with my family."
