Actors Banjo Booth Bryan Competition Crowded Entracte Flooding Florence Foreign Instrument Minstrels Performers Rival Rivalry Rivals Talent Musical


EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1880s cartoon, titled "Cartoon: English actors will soon be crowded out," humorously depicts the emerging rivalry between English performers and their American counterparts. The scene is set in a bustling Victorian-era theater, where minstrels, both foreign and English, are vying for the attention of the audience. The English actors, represented by Alfred Bryan and Florence Haverley, are shown playing musical instruments, including the banjo, while being drowned out by the loud and boisterous American performers, led by McCullaugh. The caption "Cartoon: English actors will soon be crowded out" underscores the sense of impending displacement felt by the English performers in the face of the flood of American talent. The American performers' booth is overflowing with spectators, while the English booth is nearly empty. This cartoon serves as a visual representation of the intense competition and rivalry that existed between performers during the 1880s, as the entertainment industry was being transformed by the influx of American performers and their unique styles. The banjo, a popular instrument in minstrel shows, adds to the authentic American feel of the scene, further highlighting the shift in the entertainment market.
