EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures May Edney, a renowned music hall comedienne and dancer, as she transitioned from her traditional roles to more modern revue and soubrette parts in the 1920s. Dressed in a full-length white wedding dress-style gown with a matching headdress, Edney exudes an ethereal and elegant presence. The intricate detailing of the dress and the delicate veil add to her enchanting appearance. The photograph is stamped on the back with the address of the Fred Reynolds Agency in Sheffield, indicating that it may have been taken during a performance or engagement with the agency. The date, circa 1913, places this image early in Edney's career before she gained wider recognition for her comedic and dancing talents in the revue and soubrette roles that would come to define her later success. May Edney was a popular figure in the music hall scene, known for her quick wit, expressive facial expressions, and graceful dance moves. Her ability to adapt to changing trends in entertainment and evolve her act kept her in demand throughout her long and successful career. This photograph serves as a testament to her versatility and enduring appeal as a performer.
