EDITORS COMMENTS
Mary Casson as Margaret, Captivated by Sir Gerald du Maurier's Drunken Dearth in J.M. Barrie's 'Dear Brutus' (1929). In this evocative image from the 1929 production of J.M. Barrie's fantasy 'Dear Brutus', Mary Casson (1914-2009) portrays the captivated Margaret, as she prepares to have her portrait painted by the inebriated Sir Gerald du Maurier (1873-1934), in the role of the mischievous character, Dearth. The intriguing interplay between the two actors is palpable, as Margaret seems to be both intrigued and repelled by the drunken antics of the painter. Set against the backdrop of Barrie's whimsical and enchanting tale, this scene from 'Dear Brutus' is a testament to the magical world of the stage, where reality and fantasy blend seamlessly. Mary Casson's expressive face and Sir Gerald du Maurier's larger-than-life portrayal of Dearth, transport the audience to a realm of wonder and delight. The 1929 production of 'Dear Brutus' marked an important moment in the careers of both Mary Casson and Sir Gerald du Maurier, as they brought Barrie's beloved characters to life on stage. This image encapsulates the essence of their performances and the enchanting world of the play, leaving a lasting impression on all who witness it.
