EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful photograph captures the magical moment from the 1921-2 pantomime production of Jack and the Beanstalk at the world-renowned London Hippodrome. The image features the inimitable George Robey, a British music hall legend, in his iconic role as Dame Trot, alongside the equally talented Clarice Mayne as Jack. Their larger-than-life performances brought joy and laughter to countless audiences during the festive season. In the background, a young Kiddy Kennedy, a child actor, adds an extra layer of charm to the scene. Kennedy's presence highlights the inclusive nature of pantomime, which has always welcomed performers of all ages to share the stage and create unforgettable memories for generations. The production of Jack and the Beanstalk at the London Hippodrome was a theatrical sensation, with its extravagant sets, stunning costumes, and a cast of talented performers. Robey's portrayal of Dame Trot, with his quick wit, comedic timing, and cross-dressing antics, was a crowd-pleaser, while Mayne's energetic and charismatic performance as Jack captured the hearts of young and old. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of pantomime and the magic it brings to the lives of audiences. The tradition of pantomime continues to thrive, with productions still gracing the stages of theatres across the UK and beyond, bringing joy, laughter, and a sense of community to all who attend.
