EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, titled "Don't put your fingers into too many pies, Mr. Hawtrey!" dates back to November 21, 1885, and features the English actor, director, producer, and manager, Charles Hawtrey (1858-1923). The image, published in an 1880s entertainment periodical, captures Hawtrey in a playful yet thoughtful pose, with a quizzical expression on his face as he contemplates the numerous pies displayed before him. The metaphorical use of pies in this context is a common theatrical expression, warning against overextension and the dangers of taking on too many roles or responsibilities at once. At the height of the late Victorian era, Hawtrey made a name for himself as a versatile and accomplished performer, gracing the stages of some of London's most prestigious theatres, including the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, and the Lyceum Theatre. In addition to his successful acting career, Hawtrey also ventured into theatre management and production, demonstrating his entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to the world of entertainment. This delightful cartoon, created by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the life and career of this remarkable man, whose talent and ambition left an indelible mark on the English stage. With its charming visual wit and historical significance, this image is a must-have for any collection devoted to the history of theatre and the entertainment industry in the late 19th century.
