St.Annes Pier -  The 1930s

Alongside the Moorish Pavilion, St.Annes pier, in the 1930s.

Between 1904 and 1931, the pavilion was host to many theatrical shows often performed by travelling companies which stayed perhaps for a week or so in the resort, before moving on.

The first show to run for a full season was Frank Monkton's Carnival Follies, in 1932. It was such a success that it ran for the 1933 and 1934 seasons.
