EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Chichester Photographic Collection, we are transported back to a sunny Sunday morning on the 3rd of June in 1962. The Festival Theatre stands proudly in the background, its grandeur complemented by the elegant attire of both men and women attending a service at Chichester Cathedral. The scene is filled with an air of sophistication as guests gather for this special occasion. Among them is none other than the renowned actress Joan Plowright, her presence adding an extra touch of glamour to the event. As she mingles with fellow attendees, one can only imagine the conversations and laughter that fill the air. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Chichester's rich cultural heritage. The Festival Theatre itself has become synonymous with world-class performances and artistic excellence since its opening just four years prior. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's vast collection, this image offers us a glimpse into a bygone era where people took pride in dressing smartly for such occasions. It reminds us of simpler times when community events brought individuals together to celebrate their shared values and enjoy each other's company. As we admire this remarkable piece of history, let us reflect on how it represents more than just a single day captured on film; it symbolizes unity, tradition, and our collective appreciation for artistry that continues to thrive today.
