EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the youthful elegance and radiant beauty of English actress and singer Evelyn Laye as she gracefully poses for the camera during her run in the musical "Betty in Mayfair" at the Adelphi Theatre in London, November 1925. At the time, Laye was making waves in the theatrical world, having previously appeared in J Hastings Turner's play "The Lilies of the Field" at the Ambassadors Theatre in 1923, which later inspired the musical. The musical, with music by H. Fraser-Simpson, was first produced in Sunderland in October 1925 before making its way to the West End. In this image, Laye exudes an air of demure sophistication, her pale complexion contrasting beautifully with the pearls of her pearl necklace. The 1920s were a golden age for the theatre, and this photograph is a testament to the magic and allure of live performance during that era. Evelyn Laye's career spanned several decades, and she continued to captivate audiences with her talent and charm. This photograph, taken during her time in "Betty in Mayfair," is a reminder of the enchanting world of the 1920s stage and the enduring power of live theatre to transport us to another time and place.
