Fanny's First Play

EDITORS COMMENTS
by George Bernard Shaw, originally produced anonymously at the Little Theatre in the Adelphi, London, on April 19, 1911, is depicted in this photograph from 1914. The play, which ran for an impressive 622 performances, soon revealed Shaw's authorship and went on to captivate audiences in New York at the Comedy Theatre and later at the Park Theatre in Boston. The image showcases the entire original company of actors, dressed in elegant costumes, who graced the stage for an entire year. The men don tailored jackets and the women wear ornate, flowery gowns reminiscent of the 18th and 19th centuries. The scene is set against a backdrop of patterned walls and rich fabric, adding to the theatrical ambiance of the production. The popularity of "Fanny's First Play" during the 1910s is evident in the image, as the actors exude confidence and charm. Shaw's wit and social commentary resonated with audiences, making this play a must-see theatrical event. The anonymity surrounding its inception only added to the intrigue and excitement surrounding its debut, ultimately cementing its place in the annals of popular entertainment. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of live theatre and the captivating performances that continue to enthrall audiences to this day. The elegance and sophistication of the costumes, the intricate details of the set design, and the collective energy of the cast come together to transport us back in time, offering a glimpse into the world of "Fanny's First Play" and the magic of the theatre during the early 20th century.
