EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intense moment from the 1925 production of "The Beetle," an adaptation of Richard Marsh's 1897 gothic novel of the same name. The play, first produced at the Repertory Theatre in Plymouth, was later toured to the Royal County Theatre in Bedford. In the image, the hero, with a troubled expression etched on his face, stands before an exotic and mysterious Egyptian princess, her features obscured by an ornate headdress and veil. The air around them is thick with tension, as the audience knows that this woman has the power to transform into a beetle, a creature that has haunted the hero since their fateful encounter in Egypt. The production, designed by J.B. Fagan, Charles Freeman, and Georges King, transported audiences to an orientalist world of intrigue and terror, with the hero's struggle against the vengeful princess providing a thrilling centerpiece. The elaborate costumes and detailed set design add to the allure of this theatrical experience, making it a must-see production of the 1920s touring circuit.
