EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting trio of Sibyl Grey, Leonora Braham, and Jessie Bond as the 'Three Little Maids from School' in the original production of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado, staged in London during 1885. Dressed in traditional Japanese attire, these charming women, with their innocent expressions and playful poses, embody the comic and humorous spirit of the renowned operetta. The Mikado, set in the fictional Japanese city of Titipu, was a groundbreaking production that combined the wit and satire of W.S. Gilbert's libretto with the melodic and memorable music of Arthur Sullivan. The Three Little Maids from School, a trio of Japanese schoolgirls, are among the most beloved characters in the opera, and their lively performance of the song 'Three Little Maids from School' is a highlight of the production. Sibyl Grey, Leonora Braham, and Jessie Bond were three of the most celebrated actresses and singers of the late 19th century. Their collaboration in The Mikado marked a significant moment in the history of musical theatre, as they brought to life the charming and unforgettable characters of the Three Little Maids. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the theatres of London during the 1880s and the world of Gilbert and Sullivan's timeless operetta.
