EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and experience the enchanting world of 'A Girl on the Stage' by Owen Hall, as depicted in this promotional postcard from 1906. The image showcases a young girl, surrounded by playful cherubs and Cupid, in front of the Grand Theatre in Hull. The production, originally titled 'The Little Cherub' and first performed at the Prince of Wales Theatre in London on January 13, 1906, was later revived with the new title on May 5, 1906. This touring production, featuring the girls and Cupid in front of the theatre, was set to open at the Grand Theatre on June 1, 1906. The turn-of-the-century theatrical scene comes alive in this charming photograph, with the girls dressed in elegant costumes and the classic cars parked on the street adding a touch of modernity to the scene. 'A Girl on the Stage' was a popular pantomime or panto, a form of musical comedy entertainment that was widely enjoyed during this era. The show's title, written in bold red letters on the theatre's facade, adds a sense of excitement and anticipation to the image. This postcard is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of theatre and entertainment during the 1900s. Whether you're a history buff, a theatre enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of vintage images, this postcard is sure to captivate and delight.
