EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting presence of Lynn Darlington as Mary Ellen, the eponymous heroine of F.G. Kimberley's beloved play, "The Colliers Lass." First introduced to audiences at the Theatre Royal in Wolverhampton on May 27, 1912, and later at the Theatre Royal in Stratford East on February 3, 1913, this Holiday Attraction continued to tour theaters, including the Palace Theatre in Perth on May 12, 1913. Darlington's portrayal of Mary Ellen, a young collier girl who falls in love with a wealthy gentleman, was met with critical acclaim and adoration from theatergoers. In this image, Darlington is seen standing with a shawl wrapped around her shoulders and a fringed blanket draped over her arms, her apron adorned with intricate patterns. The fringe of her skirt is also visible, adding to the texture and detail of her costume. The photograph, taken in 1913, showcases Darlington's captivating beauty and the authenticity of her performance as Mary Ellen. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the magic of live theater from a bygone era.
