"Meet the Navy" Program
"Meet the Navy" Program

Members of the cast and crew of the Royal Canadian Navy's musical revue "Meet the Navy" signed this copy of the show's program.

Created in 1943, "Meet the Navy" drew on professional theatre personnel as well as on members of the RCN and Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service. The production included songs, dance routines, and skits, and its multi-page program was illustrated with photographs of Canadian ships and portraits of cast members by war artist Grant Macdonald.
