EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating photograph by renowned theatrical photographer Langfier, showcasing a moment from the rehearsals of the popular pierrot troupe, The Follies. The image offers a glimpse into the world of music, musical variety, and theatrical production that defined the early 20th century. The Follies, managed by H.G. Pelissier, who also led the troupe as its primary performer, were known for their pierrot costumes and light-hearted revues. This photograph, taken in 1908, captures the essence of their unique brand of entertainment as they prepared for another successful performance. The troupe's extensive touring schedule took them across the country, eventually leading them to make the Apollo Theatre their West End base from 1908 to 1912. The pierrots in the photograph appear focused and engaged, with their pierrot masks adding an air of mystery and intrigue. Their costumes, adorned with colorful flowers and ribbons, are a testament to the whimsical and playful nature of their productions. The stage, bathed in soft light, sets the scene for a magical and enchanting evening of entertainment. This photograph is a precious piece of history that transports us back to an era when music halls, theatres, and variety shows reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of the power of live performance to captivate, inspire, and bring people together. The Follies' legacy continues to influence modern-day musical and theatrical productions, making this photograph a must-have for anyone with an interest in the history of music, theatre, or popular entertainment.
