EDITORS COMMENTS
All-of-a-Sudden Peggy," a captivating play by Ernest Denny, premiered at the Duke of Yorks Theatre in London on February 27, 1906. The title character, Peggy, is an impulsive young woman who adds excitement and drama to the lives of those around her. In this photograph from the production, Peggy, played by an unknown actress, is seen in the company of a young man, likely her love interest. The pair, dressed in fashionable Edwardian costumes, appear to be on the run from the law, as indicated by the presence of a policeman in a blue uniform. The scene is set in London during the early 1900s, an era of grand theatres and elegant stage productions. Peggy's sudden and impulsive behavior leads her to pretend to elope with the young man, only to later fall in love with him for real. The play's unexpected twists and turns kept audiences engaged and entertained, and it went on to tour to the Theatre Royal in Peterborough on April 17, 1911(?). The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of Harris Tweed coats, fashionable hats, and the thrill of live theatre. The actors' expressive faces and the detailed costumes add to the allure of this intriguing production, which continues to captivate audiences over a century later. This photograph is part of The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library and is an invaluable resource for those interested in the history of theatre and fashion in early 20th century England.
