EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this enchanting scene from the beloved English pantomime, The Forty Thieves! This photograph, part of The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the magical world of theatre and entertainment that unfolded on the stages of the UK. The Forty Thieves is a classic pantomime production, filled with laughter, music, and excitement. This particular moment in the show features a woman in an exotic, middle Eastern costume, pouring from a large, ornate jar. The intricately designed costume, with its vibrant colors and flowing fabrics, evokes the mystical and oriental atmosphere of the Arabian Nights. The production's attention to detail is evident in the set design, with its richly decorated backdrop and the intricate patterns adorning the jars. The woman's expression of concentration as she pours from the jar adds to the sense of wonder and enchantment that permeates this scene. The Forty Thieves pantomime is a timeless tale of adventure, romance, and mischief, and this photograph offers a tantalizing glimpse into the magical world that awaited audiences in theatres across the UK. Whether you were a child eagerly anticipating the annual pantomime trip with your family or an adult looking for an escape from the everyday, the pantomime provided a much-needed dose of joy and excitement. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of pantomime but also a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and tradition that continues to thrive in the UK's theatre scene. So, come one, come all, and join us in celebrating the magic of The Forty Thieves pantomime!
