EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster invites viewers to experience the enchantment of Rices' Evangeline Extravaganza, an elaborate theatrical production that swept through the United States in the late 19th century. The image, dated around 1879, showcases the evocative scene of a young woman, Evangeline, gazing longingly towards the horizon, her heart heavy with love and loss. The Rices' Evangeline Extravaganza was based on the popular Longfellow poem "Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie," which told the tragic story of Acadian exiles who were forcibly removed from their homes in Canada and relocated to Louisiana in the 18th century. This poignant tale resonated deeply with audiences, and the extravaganza's creators, the Rices Brothers, capitalized on its popularity by producing a grand spectacle filled with music, dance, and drama. The poster's vibrant colors and intricate details draw the eye, with Evangeline's flowing gown and expressive face capturing the essence of the romantic and heartfelt narrative. The poster's border is adorned with images of Acadian scenes, further emphasizing the connection between the production and the rich history of the Acadian people. The Rices' Evangeline Extravaganza was a testament to the power of storytelling and the enduring appeal of the human spirit. This poster serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of 19th-century entertainment and the captivating story of Evangeline and her love, Gabriel.
