Step into the captivating world of early 20th century theatre with this evocative promotional postcard for "The Traitor" by E. Hill-Mitchelson. Depicting a pivotal moment from the play, the image finds Colonel Nervi (centre) undergoing a secret initiation into an anarchist society. Flanked by masked members of the clandestine clan, Nervi's right arm is branded with a red-hot iron, symbolizing his loyalty and commitment to their cause. The year is circa 1903, and the play, originally titled "A Judas," had its premiere at the Theatre Royal in Wigan on the 27th of July and later at the Theatre Royal, Stratford, on the 23rd of January. The intrigue and suspense of the production were palpable, as the audience was unaware that the man being branded was, in fact, the Prince whom the society was plotting to kill in Act II. This image, a testament to the theatrical prowess of the 1900s, offers a glimpse into the popular entertainment of the era. The regal and royal atmosphere is further emphasized by the ornate costumes, the dimly lit stage, and the sense of intrigue that permeates the scene. E. Hill-Mitchelson's "The Traitor" was a pantomime, or panto, that captured the imagination of theatre-goers during the early 1900s. This postcard serves as a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of theatre during an era of change and transformation.
