EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph from the June 20, 1931 issue of Play Pictorial captures a young and dapper Noel Coward, an esteemed alumnus of the Italia Conti School, as he graced the stage in the production of "When the Rainbow Ends" a remarkable 21 years prior. The image is accompanied by an advertisement for Coward's latest play, "Cavalcade," which had recently opened to great acclaim. Noel Coward, an English playwright, actor, and composer, first attended the Italia Conti School in the early 1900s, where he honed his craft and developed a deep love for the stage. The success of "When the Rainbow Ends" in 1912 marked the beginning of Coward's illustrious career in the theater. In this photograph, Coward exudes confidence and charisma, a testament to his talent and the impact he had already made on the London stage. The advertisement for "Cavalcade" highlights the play's success and the critical acclaim it had received, further cementing Coward's reputation as a leading figure in the world of British theater. The June 20, 1931 issue of Play Pictorial focused on "Cavalcade," providing in-depth coverage of the production and showcasing other images of the cast and crew. This photograph and advertisement serve as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the life and career of a true theatrical legend.
