This photograph shows Judy Moxon juggling a tennis racquet, part of an act that included foot juggling which she performed in cabaret and variety all over the world. Judy learned her skills from her mother Eileen, who performed with her from the time she was 15 in the late 1940s in an act called Levanda and Van. Judy was the grand-daughter of Edwin, or Ted, Moxon (1857-1945) who ran away from home to join the circus when he was 17, and travelled the world performing a foot-juggling act in circuses and variety theatres. He performed in Russia for seven years, spoke several languages fluently and had thirteen children. When they were mature enough, the two eldest children were trained in foot juggling to become part of the family act, the Moxon Trio. Eileen later formed her own foot-juggling act, first with her brother, and then her daughter Judy.

The photograph was given by Judy Moxon, along with posters showing her grandfather's act, a pair of his acrobatic trunks, and a programme for London Rhapsody at the Palladium Theatre, September 1937, illustrated with an image of her mother performing the act, as well as her juggling clubs made by her grandfather.
