EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the remarkable Charles Mathews in the midst of a performance during the 1820s, as he brought six distinct characters to life in the popular play 'Stories by an Idiot.' Mathews, a celebrated comic actor of the Georgian stage, was renowned for his distinctive appearance, most notably his lop-sided mouth and remarkable gift for mimicry. In this image, we see Mathews in full theatrical glory, donning various costumes to embody each character. The first figure on the left showcases Mathews as an old, obese man, leaning on a walking stick. Next, we find him as a plump, jovial man playing the violin. The third character is an old man with a thin, hunchbacked frame. The fourth figure is a tall, thin man, while the fifth is a fat, comically exaggerated man. Lastly, Mathews portrays a thin, old man with a cane. Mathews' ability to transform himself so convincingly into these diverse characters was a testament to his immense talent and the power of his mimicry. His performances were a source of endless entertainment for audiences during the 1820s, and this photograph serves as a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Georgian theatre and the captivating artistry of one of its most beloved performers.
