Haymarket - Scene from "The Second Calendar and the Queen of Beauty who had to fight with the Genie", 1850. London stage production by the brothers Brough. The plot...is taken from not only the celebrated story whose name it bears, but also from another tale in the same work, the celebrated "Arabian Nights Entertainment", the two stories being very ingeniously dove-tailed...The introductory scene is a picnic in the Desert, in which the King of the Ebony Isles (Mr. J. Bland) incurs the displeasure of a malignant genie, Jargarhees (Mr. E. Selby)...The Prince Agib (Miss Anne Romer, her first appearance at this theatre), has been robbed by banditti, and is discovered bound to a tree by Codja, a woodman (Mr. Buckstone)...of course the Prince falls in love with the Princess, and the Genie, in his rage on discovering it, transforms the handsome Prince into an Ape (played by Mr, Lebarr)'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850

EDITORS COMMENTS
Haymarket Theatre, London, 1850: A Scene from 'The Second Calendar and the Queen of Beauty...' This intriguing photograph captures a moment from the London stage production of 'The Second Calendar and the Queen of Beauty...' at the Haymarket Theatre in 1850. The exact creator of this image remains unknown, adding to the mystery of this scene. The play, based on elements from both 'The Second Calendar' and 'The Arabian Nights' Entertainment, tells an intricately woven tale of love, magic, and revenge. In the opening scene, the King of the Ebony Isles, portrayed by Mr. J. Bland, incurs the wrath of a malevolent genie, Jargarhees, played by Mr. E. Selby. Meanwhile, the Prince Agib, played by Miss Anne Romer in her first appearance at the theatre, has been robbed by bandits and is discovered bound to a tree by Codja, a woodman, portrayed by Mr. Buckstone. As fate would have it, the Prince falls in love with the Princess, and the Genie, enraged by this development, transforms the handsome Prince into an ape, played by Mr. Lebarr. The photograph offers a glimpse into the elaborate costumes and set designs of the production, transporting us back to the magical world of the Haymarket Theatre over 170 years ago. The intricate details of the genie's costume, the rich fabrics of the Princess's gown, and the lush greenery of the forest setting all contribute to the enchanting atmosphere of this theatrical production. This photograph is a testament to the power of storytelling and the enduring appeal of magical tales that continue to captivate audiences to this day.
