EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the essence of British character actor and cabaret artist Rex Evans, as he enchants the crowd with his piano playing at the renowned Kettner's Restaurant in London during the 1920s. Dressed in a sharp suit and bow tie, Evans exudes charm and charisma as he connects with the audience through his music. The warm and inviting atmosphere of the cabaret is highlighted by the soft glow of the table lamps and the elegant decor of the restaurant. Rex Evans, born in 1903, was a versatile performer who made a name for himself on both the stage and screen. However, it was his cabaret performances at Kettner's that truly showcased his talent for entertaining. With his unique blend of singing and piano playing, Evans became a beloved figure in London's vibrant nightlife scene. This caricature by H.H. Harris in The Bystander provides a humorous and endearing glimpse into the world of 1920s cabaret entertainment. The cartoonist expertly captures Evans' expressive face and the playful, mischievous twinkle in his eye. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of live music and the magic of a good cabaret performance. As the roaring twenties came to a close, Rex Evans continued to captivate audiences with his performances at Kettner's and beyond. His legacy as a beloved British entertainer lives on, and this image serves as a reminder of the joy and wonder of a bygone era.
