EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enchanting presence of Miss Wish Wynne as she prepared to take the stage and replace Elsie Janis in the popular revue at the Palace Theatre, The Passing Show, in 1915. Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of World War I, the entertainment industry continued to captivate audiences with its dazzling spectacles, and The Passing Show was no exception. Wynne's radiant smile and expressive eyes convey a sense of joy and excitement, reflecting the anticipation of both the audience and the performer as she embarked on this new chapter in her career. Born in 1882, Wynne was an accomplished actress who had already made a name for herself on the stage. Her replacement of Elsie Janis in The Passing Show was a highly publicized event, and the press eagerly chronicled her every move. Wynne's talent and charisma quickly endeared her to audiences, and she went on to enjoy a successful and storied career in the world of theatre and entertainment. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the allure of the stage could momentarily distract from the harsh realities of war. Miss Wynne's captivating presence and the magic of the theatre continue to captivate us today, making this portrait a valuable addition to any collection of historical images.
