EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere outside the Palace Theatre in Cambridge Circus, London on the opening night of Jesus Christ Superstar. The image captures a unique moment where demonstrators and a star come together in an unexpected encounter. The demonstrators, representing the National Secular Society, can be seen passionately singing hymns and distributing leaflets to passersby. Their presence adds an intriguing layer of complexity to this theatrical event centered around religion. It is fascinating to witness how different ideologies intersected during this time. Amidst the crowd stands Warren Mitchell, a renowned actor who captivated audiences with his performances. In this photograph, he is approached by one of the demonstrators who offers him a leaflet – perhaps hoping to engage him in their cause or spark a conversation about faith and secularism. The composition of this picture beautifully reflects the diversity within society during that era - people from various age groups and backgrounds coming together for both entertainment and activism. It serves as a powerful reminder that art has always had the ability to provoke thought and ignite conversations about important social issues. This remarkable snapshot frozen in time was captured by Alisdair MacDonald and Arthur Mu, two talented photographers who have skillfully preserved this momentous occasion for future generations to appreciate.
