EDITORS COMMENTS
This postcard showcases a theatrical moment from the popular play "A Kiss for Cinderella," a fancy in three acts by J.M. Barrie, which was staged at Wyndhams Theatre in London around 1916. The image features Gerald du Maurier in an enchanting silhouette, portraying the character of Foulsham, a policeman, as he leans in for a romantic kiss with Cinderella, played by Sybil Thorndike. The play, a fanciful retelling of the classic Cinderella story, was a significant success during the 1910s and attracted large audiences to the theatre. Du Maurier's performance as Foulsham, a man in a helmet who ultimately helps Cinderella find her true love, was a crowd-pleaser and added an unexpected twist to the beloved tale. This promotional postcard captures the magic and excitement of the production, transporting viewers back to a time when live theatre was a major form of popular entertainment.
