The Pageant of Labour was a large-scale musical and dramatic show held at The Crystal Palace, London, England, on 15–20 October 1934.[1] With words by Matthew Anderson and music by Alan Bush,[1] it celebrated the history of the British labour movement, and like most pageants of the era was a mixture of instrumental and choral music, drama and dance. It was organised by the Central Women's Organisation Committee of the London Trades Council and directed by Edward Genn.[1] Bush and Michael Tippett conducted the choir and orchestra.[1] Among the cast was the 15-year-old Nigel Stock.
