EDITORS COMMENTS
A Triumph of British Stage and Screen: A Glance into the World of Entertainment Amidst the Backdrop of WWI (January 16, 1917) This cover of The Illustrated Sporting & Dramatic News showcases a trio of celebrated stars gracing the stages of London's most renowned theatres during the tumultuous year of 1917. The first enchanting figure on the left is the captivating Miss Vera Clarke, who mesmerized audiences at the Victoria Palace Theatre with her principal role in the production of "Mischievous Mimi." Her luminous presence and magnetic stage charisma left audiences yearning for more. In the heart of the image, we find the charismatic Mr. Tom Woottwell, who brought the character Bert to life in the acclaimed play "The Better Ole" at the Oxford Theatre. Based on the popular Bystander cartoons of Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, this production offered a much-needed respite from the harsh realities of the ongoing First World War. Woottwell's exceptional talent and ability to connect with the audience made him an unforgettable presence on the stage. Gracing the right side of the cover is the radiant Miss Cicely Debenham, who enchanted theatre-goers at the Hippodrome with her leading role in the intriguing production of "Zig-Zag." As one of the foremost actresses of her time, Debenham's versatility and captivating performances left audiences in awe. Amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the First World War, these three stars of stage and screen provided a much-needed source of inspiration and joy for the British public. Their unwavering dedication to their craft and the ability to transport audiences to another world, even for just a few hours, is a testament to the enduring power of the performing arts.
