EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of wit and elegance as Peggy Ashcroft and Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies bring to life the iconic characters of Cecily Cardew and Gwendolyn Fairfax in a 1939 production of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest at the Globe Theatre. Peggy Ashcroft, born in 1907, displays the youthful exuberance and innocence of Cecily, while Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies, born in 1891, embodies the sophistication and poise of Gwendolyn. The two actresses, both renowned for their exceptional talent and versatility, deliver unforgettable performances in this timeless comedy of manners. The Importance of Being Earnest, set in the 1890s, is a classic tale of mistaken identities, love, and social satire. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Wilde's masterpiece and the brilliance of these two extraordinary actresses in their roles. The image, taken during the 1930s, captures the essence of a bygone era and the magic of live theatre.
