The Locarno Dance Hall, Streatham Hill, was part of an entertainment complex built along Streatham High Road c.1930, which included the Streatham Theatre and The Gaumont Cinema. The Armistice Ball seen advertised, was held at the Locarno in November 1930, when it was one of the most popular purpose built dance halls in South London. It was renamed The Cat's Whiskers in 1970 and has had many changes to its name and appearance since then.
