EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon depicts Henry James Byron (1835-1884), the prolific English dramatist, editor, journalist, director, theatre manager, novelist, and actor, surrounded by a sea of posters advertising plays by his contemporaries. Byron, dressed in a smart bowler hat and holding a sandwich board, looks on with a wry expression as he exclaims, "I don't see my name on any of their bills!" The year is 1883, and the Victorian era's intense theatre scene is in full swing. Byron's rivals, including Buchanan, Harris, and Jones, dominated the stage with their productions, leaving Byron feeling overshadowed. Despite the competition and rivalry, Byron's moustachioed visage remains a prominent figure in the world of theatre, a testament to his enduring talent and versatility. This humorous and insightful cartoon, published in Entracte on October 20, 1883, offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian theatre and the fierce competition that drove its creators to new heights.
