EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a milestone moment in the rich history of the Theatre Royal in Dublin, with the announcement of the commencement of Dick Whittington on an unusual Tuesday, 22nd January 1904. Billed as 'The Strongest Cast ever seen in Dublin Pantomime,' this production of Dick Whittington promised to be an unforgettable theatrical experience. The poster features the title character, Dick Whittington, sitting on a pierrot costume-adorned milestone, with a knapsack slung over his shoulder and a bow in his hand. The black cat, a beloved companion in this classic pantomime tale, perches beside him, gazing intently at the horizon. The setting sun and rising moon in the background add to the magical and enchanting atmosphere. The countryside scene, with its tranquil countryside and the promise of adventure, is a perfect representation of the popular entertainment that the Theatre Royal in Dublin had to offer in the early 1900s. The ivy-covered milestone, with the number '19 Miles to London,' further emphasizes the journey that Dick Whittington embarks on, leaving his old life behind to seek his fortune in the bustling city. This print is a testament to the enduring appeal of Dick Whittington and the magic of pantomime, which continues to captivate audiences of all ages. With its theatrical flair and stunning visuals, this poster is a must-have for any collection of vintage theatre memorabilia or for those who appreciate the history of popular entertainment in Ireland.
