EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree, a renowned English actor and theatre director, with members of His Majesty's Theatre Company during their production of "Business is Business" at Tyne Theatre in Newcastle upon Tyne, during the 1900s. Tree, dressed in a striking Edwardian costume consisting of a coat, waistcoat, and cap, takes center stage as the character "The Man Who Was," while Colonel Newcome, portrayed by another actor, stands to his right, smoking a cigar and donning military attire. Tree was a pioneering figure in late-Victorian and Edwardian theatre, known for his innovative productions and versatile acting abilities. In "Business is Business," he brought to life the intriguing and complex character of The Man Who Was, a man who, after being presumed dead for years, returns to reclaim his business and family. The members of His Majesty's Theatre Company, all dressed in their respective character costumes, can be seen in the background, adding to the lively and theatrical atmosphere of the scene. The stage is set with various props and scenery, further emphasizing the drama and intrigue of the play. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of early 20th-century theatre, where actors like Beerbohm Tree and His Majesty's Theatre Company brought stories to life on stage, captivating audiences with their talent and artistry.
