EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon from 1884, titled "Entr'acte," depicts two of the most renowned figures of the Victorian theatre world: Sir Arthur Wing Pinero (1855-1934) and Sir Squire Bancroft (1841-1926). Pinero, an English actor, playwright, and stage director, is seen at an easel, intently focused on cleaning or restoring an old cartoon. His monocle perched on his nose, he is deep in thought, possibly contemplating the revival of an old play. Sir Squire Bancroft, an English actor-manager, stands nearby, observing Pinero with a curious expression. The London theatre scene was abuzz with the idea of reviving old plays, and these two masters of their craft were no exception. The recycling of material was a common practice in the theatre world, and the subject of scripts that had once been successful was often revisited. The cartoon, with its intricate details and rich colors, is a testament to the artistry of the time. The old masters, like the plays of the past, were not discarded but rather cherished and brought back to life through careful cleaning and restoration. This image captures the essence of the Victorian theatre world, where tradition and innovation coexisted, and the past and present were intertwined in the pursuit of entertainment. Pinero and Bancroft, two giants of the London stage, embody the spirit of this era. Their collaboration on the revival of old plays would no doubt result in productions that were both timeless and relevant, appealing to audiences then and now.
