Kings and Queens,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a theatrical production by Rudolf Besier, premiered at St. James Theatre on January 16, 1915, during the tumultuous period of the First World War. The Daily Telegraph hailed Sir George Alexander's innovative choice, declaring it "the very play for war time." This pantomime, or panto, offered a much-needed respite from the harsh realities of the conflict, providing a fantastical and popular form of entertainment for audiences. The elaborate and colorful production of "Kings and Queens" featured an ensemble cast portraying various kings and queens, transporting viewers to a magical world far removed from the battlefields of Europe. The pantomime's whimsical narrative, filled with music, dance, and comedy, captivated audiences and offered a much-needed distraction from the war's haunting preoccupations. The success of "Kings and Queens" was not limited to London, as it toured to various venues, including the Kursaal in Bognor on September 6, 1915. The production's enduring popularity underscores the importance of the arts in providing solace and escape during times of great adversity. This photograph, taken in 1915, captures a moment in theatrical history, showcasing the grandeur and allure of "Kings and Queens" as it captivated audiences during the First World War. The image, featuring an array of kings and queens, is a testament to the power of the stage to transport and uplift, even in the most challenging of times.
