EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the magic and merriment of The Babes in the Wood pantomime performance at the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane, London, during the festive season of 1907. The Theatre Royal, a renowned venue for pantomimes, had a rich history, with Arthur Collins following in the footsteps of his predecessor, Augustus Harris, as both the manager and part-author (with Frank Dix) of this delightful production. The scene depicted in the photograph is filled with the whimsical charm of the Edwardian era. The Babes in the Wood, a traditional English pantomime tale, comes to life on stage with a cast of colourful characters and humorous antics. The two babes, dressed in white, are seen here peering curiously at a toadstool and a broken sword, while a comic character, possibly the Mushroom Man, looks on with a mischievous grin. The atmosphere in the theatre is electric, with the audience's anticipation palpable. The stage is adorned with lush greenery and vibrant colours, adding to the enchanting ambiance. The costumes, too, are a visual treat, with each character donning elaborate and eye-catching attire. Arthur Collins' direction and Frank Dix's script brought together the perfect blend of comedy, music, dance, and spectacle, making The Babes in the Wood a must-see pantomime for the Christmas season of 1907. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of pantomime as a cherished holiday tradition and a beloved form of entertainment in the early 1900s.
