EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the captivating world of Mrs F G Kimberley, the renowned actress and writer of melodramas, as depicted in this evocative photograph from her performance in "Miranda of the Wilds." This postcard, a treasured piece of theatrical history from 1915, was produced to raise funds for a worthy cause. Reverse side of the card reads, "Help us send gift parcels and cigarettes to our brave men at the front. Your support will be acknowledged each week in The Performer." During the tumultuous year of 1915, as the First World War raged on, the power of popular entertainment to uplift spirits and provide solace to the troops was more crucial than ever. The stage, with its pantomimes, plays, and melodramas, served as an essential escape from the harsh realities of war. Mrs Kimberley, with her magnetic stage presence and ability to captivate audiences, was a beacon of hope and joy in the dark times. This postcard, a testament to her enduring talent, stands as a poignant reminder of the unique role the theatre played in the lives of the people during the Great War. The photograph, now available for purchase from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the power of live performance transcended the boundaries of the theatre and brought comfort to those in need. Join us in honoring the legacy of Mrs F G Kimberley and the indomitable spirit of the human race, as we remember the sacrifices made during the First World War.
