Can You Name Them All (Slice 1)

I’ve sliced up the image into three sections, I can’t enhance the detail because it’s a textured photograph unfortunately.

School Production

This one took some preparation; it arrived as an A3 image badly creased!  Scanned in two passes, stitched together and ‘Photoshopped’ to remove the crease, cropped and reduced back to A4.  We asked questions and the answers are: Loftus Junior School production of The Old Music Hall and the year is probably 1981/2, but we await a definite. The annotation will take some time. But we can identify the following: girl in centre possibly Paula Danby, Rebecca Bowman is little girl in the bonnet on the right with hands together and Olivia McBurney is is seated front row, she is the little girl all in white with a white bonnet. We await other names.
