~ Gracie's Working Party ~

In 1947 Gracie arrived in England for the start of her Working Party travelling 2000 miles in twelve weeks, receiving the adulation every artiste seeks. Giving six direct broadcasts and six recorded shows, packed with unforgettable memories as the world knows. Repaying this overwhelming affection was quite beyond her but she was determined to do her best to favour every sincere request.
