- W2000771447 abstract "While a great deal has been written about the fin-de-sicle chorus girl's subjection to the so-called male gaze, comparatively little has appeared regarding the chorus boy. This article attempts to redress the balance by concentrating on the specific problems of the West End chorus boy from the turn of the century up until the mid-1930s. As well as discussing questions of queerness, it addresses other issues such as working conditions, salaries, audience perception and World War I. However, while there are a number of articles, reviews and even novels regarding chorus girls, material on chorus boys is relatively meagre. Primary source research for this article has therefore relied mainly on occasional media references. But there have also been two main areas that have given a more complete depiction of the working life and activities of the chorus boy. Firstly, the fairly extensive media coverage of Noel Coward's deployment of the Dancing Boys in his 1932 revue for C.B. Cochran, Words and Music , to be found in the C. B. Cochran files of the V&A Theatre Collections. The other important source has been a rare article on Chorus Gentlemen by Cyril Butcher, who was a member of the Words and Music chorus. This attempts to defend the chorus boy against accusations of effeminacy and homosexuality, while offering a useful insight into his working life. Otherwise material exclusively about the West End chorus boy is sparse, and this necessitates a certain amount of conjecture." @default.
