EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, titled "Entr'acte," dates back to August 1884, and depicts the Reverend Stewart Headlam, a trailblazing figure of the Victorian era. The Reverend Headlam, born in 1847, is famously known as the founder of The Church and Stage Guild, an innovative organization established in May 1879. The Guild aimed to challenge the prevailing prejudice against the theatre and its performers by bringing together members from the clergy and the theatrical world. Within just a year of its inception, The Church and Stage Guild had amassed nearly 500 members, making it a significant force in bridging the gap between the religious and theatrical communities. In this cartoon, we see the Reverend Headlam, profiled and engrossed in the performance, using a pair of binoculars to observe the stage from his box. The other clergymen, also in attendance, appear intrigued and engaged, their expressions reflecting a newfound appreciation for the art of theatre. The cartoon, published in Bryan's August 1884 issue, captures the essence of the Guild's mission and the transformative impact it had on the relationship between the Church and the Stage during the 1880s. This intriguing snapshot of history offers a glimpse into a time when barriers were broken down, and new connections were forged between seemingly disparate worlds.
