EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of musical comedy in the early 1900s, featuring the beloved production of "The Medal and the Maid" by Sidney Jones. In this scene, the enchanting Miss Ventnor, played by the talented Ada Reeve, is shown in the midst of performing her solo number, "In My Curriculum." The song's lyrics, penned by Charles H. Taylor, express the longing for a more diverse education beyond the confines of traditional curriculum. The setting is the historic Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in London, where the musical premiered in 1902. Miss Ventnor, a young and vibrant woman, is seen sitting at a table, surrounded by books and papers, as if she is in the middle of studying for an exam. However, her expression reveals a sense of joy and excitement, as she sings her heart out, captivating the audience with her melodic voice and engaging performance. The Edwardian era's influence is evident in the elegant costumes, intricate set design, and the overall atmosphere of the production. Keith Prowse, a renowned actor and comedian of the time, also starred in the musical, adding to its comedic elements and making it a must-see event for London's theatergoers. "The Medal and the Maid" was a significant success, running for over 700 performances and cementing Sidney Jones' reputation as a master of musical comedy. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of this classic production and the magical world of musical theater in the early 1900s.
