EDITORS COMMENTS
A Peek Behind the Curtains: An 1880s Theatre Encounter In the heart of Victorian London, the allure of the theatre was a magnetic draw for the curious and the captivated. Among the enchanted audience members was this charming gentleman, dressed in a tall top hat, a tailored coat, and carrying a cane. His eyes, however, were not fixed on the stage, but rather on the captivating showgirls who graced the backstage. During the intermission of a lively performance, he made his way backstage, where the energy was electric. The performers, both men and women, were preparing for their next act. The air was filled with the scent of makeup, the hum of hushed conversations, and the clatter of props being arranged. Our dapper visitor, with a confident chuck under his chin, approached a group of showgirls, their feathers and sequins glinting in the dimly lit room. He engaged them in animated conversation, his charm and wit no match for their playful banter. The women, amused by his attentions, laughed and chatted, momentarily forgetting the pressures of the impending show. This snapshot of an 1880s theatre encounter, captured in a whimsical cartoon by Terry Parker for Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into a bygone era where the magic of the stage extended beyond the footlights and into the hearts of the audience.
