EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this delightful promotional print for the Aladdin pantomime at Ye Olde Sadlers Wells Theatre in London, which opened on December 24, 1902. This enchanting production was presented twice nightly and featured the participation of no less than 100 local children, adding an extra dose of magic to the festive entertainment. The vibrant and intricate design of this blue and white circular plate, reminiscent of Chinese porcelain, perfectly encapsulates the oriental theme of the pantomime. The exotic allure of the East was a popular trend during the Edwardian era, and this production at Sadlers Wells Theatre was no exception. The central image of the plate showcases the iconic character of Aladdin, poised against a backdrop of willow patterns and swirling floral motifs. The comic harlequinade, a traditional element of pantomime, is represented by the jester-like figure at the bottom right corner, adding a touch of mischief and humor to the design. This beautiful plate, with its rich history and intricate details, offers a captivating glimpse into the world of pantomime entertainment during the early 1900s. Whether displayed in your home or office, it serves as a reminder of the enchantment and wonder that the theatre has the power to bring to our lives.
