The Flower Girl,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating musical comedy production by the talented William T. Gliddon, graces this vintage promotional postcard from the Charles M. Bestics Co. tour. First brought to life on the stages of the Theatre Royal in Lincoln on May 14, 1908, and later gracing the Grand Theatre in Croydon on November 10, 1908, this popular theatrical work was soon to make its way to the Prince of Wales Theatre in Birmingham, with performances beginning on August 17, 1908. The image showcases the enchanting title character, The Flower Girl, surrounded by a sea of vibrant blossoms and a horseshoe-shaped arrangement of her floral wares. Her radiant smile and the delicate beauty of the flowers evoke a sense of joy and wonder, inviting audiences to lose themselves in the magical world of this musical comedy. Gliddon's contribution to the theatrical landscape of the late 19th and early 20th centuries was significant, with his works often praised for their wit, charm, and captivating storytelling. "The Flower Girl" proved to be no exception, delighting audiences with its catchy tunes, engaging characters, and delightful plot. This postcard offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when live theatre reigned supreme as the most popular form of entertainment. As we gaze upon the image of The Flower Girl, we are reminded of the enduring power of the stage to captivate, inspire, and bring joy to audiences, much as it did over a century ago.
