Alma Steele as Marton in La Cigale: A Late Victorian Theatrical Favourite This photograph captures Alma Steele in the role of Marton from the musical comedy, La Cigale, during the late 1890s. Steele, an accomplished actress and singer, rose to prominence on the London stage during the late Victorian era. Her portrayal of Marton, a mischievous and enchanting character from the popular French musical, became one of her most beloved roles. In this image, Steele dons an elaborate and intricately designed costume, complete with a voluminous skirt, fitted bodice, and a headpiece adorned with feathers and flowers. The expression on her face is one of mischief and playfulness, perfectly capturing the spirit of Marton. She holds a mandolin, a stringed musical instrument that adds to the charm and allure of the character. La Cigale, which premiered in Paris in 1872, was a favorite among audiences for its witty lyrics, catchy tunes, and engaging characters. Steele's performance as Marton would have been a highlight of the production, bringing laughter and delight to the footlights of the theatre. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of late Victorian entertainment and the captivating performances of its stars. Alma Steele's portrayal of Marton in La Cigale continues to enchant and intrigue audiences, over a century after its first performance.
