EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the lively and whimsical atmosphere backstage at Theatre Rotto's performance in Sancreed Village Hall, Cornwall during the 1980s. The image is filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation as actors and actresses prepare for their upcoming show. In the foreground, a male actor dons a vibrant red dress, complete with petticoats and lace-up boots, while adjusting his wig and applying makeup. Nearby, a female actress, with a gloved hand on her hip, checks her reflection in a mirror, her expression a mixture of confidence and amusement. Another actor, dressed in drag with a cross-dressing ensemble, laughs and chats with a fellow performer, both clad in elaborate costumes and holding microphones. Theatre Rotto was a touring theatre company that brought laughter and entertainment to rural communities throughout Cornwall. Their performances were known for their comedic and humorous elements, making them a beloved and integral part of the local cultural scene. The company's ability to transform ordinary village halls into magical theatrical spaces is evident in this photograph, as the performers bring their unique brand of fun and humor to life. This photograph is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Theatre Rotto company and their commitment to bringing joy and entertainment to their audiences. It is a reminder of the power of live theatre and the enduring appeal of a good laugh, no matter where you are or who you are.
