EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Lillian Russell, an American actress and singer, in the early 20th century. The image was taken during her involvement in a groundbreaking theatrical project: the editing and production of a Spanish comedy titled "La prisin sin culpa" ("The Prison Without Guilt") by the renowned Spanish playwright Lope de Vega Carpio. Born in 1861, Lillian Russell was a prominent figure in American theater, known for her powerful voice and captivating stage presence. In 1922, she traveled to Barcelona, Spain, to collaborate on this historical import of Lope de Vega's classic comedy. The play, originally written in 1562, was edited and produced under the guidance of Sebastian, a local theater company. Russell's participation in this project marked a significant moment in the history of international theater collaborations. Her involvement in the editing process allowed for a fresh interpretation of the classic Spanish comedy, making it accessible to a wider audience. The production was a success, and Lillian Russell's involvement added an exciting new dimension to the legacy of Lope de Vega's work. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of theater and the international connections that can be forged through artistic collaboration. Lillian Russell's passion for the craft and her dedication to bringing classic works to new audiences continue to inspire artists and theatergoers alike.
