ENSA concert party in Aldwych Underground Station
A brightly lit makeshift stage spans the curved platform of Aldwych station, where an ENSA concert party—complete with singers, accordionists and a packed audience—brings music and laughter beneath the earth. Wartime posters and the District Line roundel still adorn the tunnel walls as Londoners gather for a rare moment of normality.
In late 1940, with the Blitz raging overhead, ENSA (Entertainments National Service Association) teams performed in Underground stations to lift civilian morale. Aldwych, closed to regular services, became one of the most celebrated venues, hosting comedians, musicians and actors for thousands seeking respite from air raids.
If you possess photographs or memorabilia of London’s wartime entertainment, share them to help preserve these uplifting stories.
