EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and meet the charismatic General John Regan, brought to life on stage by the renowned Irish actor Leonard Boyne in this theatrical production of the early 1910s. This promotional cardboard cut-out flyer invites you to witness the hilarious exploits of this confidence trickster as he convinces a small Irish town that one of its natives, who is claimed to have led the independence movement of a South American country, deserves a grand statue in his honor. The play, titled "General John Regan," was first produced at the prestigious Apollo Theatre in London on January 9, 1913, and later toured to the Gaiety Theatre in Hastings from October 26, 1914. The production was the brainchild of George A. Birmingham, who also penned a novel based on the play and dedicated it to the star, Charles Hawtrey, the same year. Birmingham's "General John Regan" was a charming Irish comedy that showcased the actor's comedic prowess and captured the hearts of audiences during the 10s. The play, which can be described as a precursor to modern pantomime or panto, offered a delightful escape from the daily grind and provided a much-needed dose of entertainment for the masses. Join us as we take a trip down memory lane and relive the magic of this iconic theatrical production, featuring the unforgettable performance of Leonard Boyne as the charismatic General John Regan. This promotional flyer is a testament to the enduring power of live theatre and the captivating stories it has the ability to tell.
