EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Young Cinderella Gathers Firewood in the Forest: A Timeless Tale of Magic and Transformation at the Theatre Royal, Bognor, Early 20th Century" In this evocative monochrome photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, we witness a captivating moment from the classic pantomime production of "Cinderella" at the Theatre Royal in Bognor, England, during the early 20th century. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to explore the magical world of the theatre and the enchanting story of Cinderella. The photograph features a young, elegant woman dressed in a blue gown, her eyes downcast as she meticulously collects firewood from the forest floor. The setting is idyllic, with trees in the background providing a picturesque backdrop. The woman's rags, a stark contrast to her beautiful gown, serve as a reminder of her humble beginnings and the trials she faces in the popular theatrical adaptation of the beloved fairy tale. The pantomime, a popular form of entertainment in the UK, was known for its elaborate productions, colorful costumes, and interactive performances. In this image, we can imagine the anticipation building in the audience as they await the transformation of Cinderella from a downtrodden servant girl to a radiant princess, all brought to life through the magic of live theatre. This photograph not only showcases the theatrical artistry and charm of the Theatre Royal in Bognor but also highlights the enduring appeal of the Cinderella story, which continues to captivate audiences of all ages with its themes of hope, transformation, and the power of true love.
