Dayton Epaulettes Height Increasing Performer Performers Promotional Twelve
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on The Only & Original Dayton Family, an extraordinary theatrical troupe hailing from the heart of England. This promotional postcard, part of The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases the vibrant and eclectic costumes donned by the performers as they prepare to enchant audiences with their spellbinding performances. The Dayton Family, a boy and his eleven siblings, were renowned for their unique Spanish-style act, which featured an increasing number of tall hats as the boys grew in height. The eldest boy, dressed in a striking orange costume and top hat adorned with gold epaulettes, leads the way, while his younger brothers and sisters don colorful garments, each adorned with a tall hat, adding to the visual spectacle. The performers exude a sense of excitement and anticipation, their wide grins and animated expressions hinting at the joy and wonder that awaited audiences in the theatre. The girls, dressed in flowing skirts and frilly blouses, twirl and giggle, while the boys, with their mischievous grins and determined gazes, promise a thrilling and unforgettable show. This photograph is a testament to the magic and wonder of live theatre, a time when families like The Dayton Family could captivate audiences with their unique talents and bring joy to generations. The large and intricately designed hats, the twinkling eyes of the performers, and the sense of excitement in the air all come together to create a moment frozen in time, a moment that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
