EDITORS COMMENTS
Monsieur and Madame Pierrot: A Captivating Portrait of Jane May in the Role of Pierrot (circa 1890s) This enchanting photograph captures the young and talented actress, Jane May, in the captivating role of Pierrot in the production of 'Monsieur and Madame Pierrot' during the late Victorian era. Dressed in the traditional Pierrot costume, May exudes an air of melancholic charm, with her expressive eyes and pensive expression. The Pierrot character, originating from the Commedia dell'Arte tradition, is a male clown known for his white face makeup, baggy pants, and breeches. However, in this production, the gender roles were reversed, with May brilliantly portraying both Pierrot and his female counterpart, Columbine. This cross-dressing element was a popular trend in late 19th-century theatre, allowing actresses to showcase their versatility and talent on the stage. May's performance in 'Monsieur and Madame Pierrot' was a favourite among audiences, who were drawn to her unique interpretation of the character. The Footlights, a prominent theatre publication of the time, praised her "exquisite acting" and "charming stage presence." This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the theatre and the captivating artistry of Jane May. Her portrayal of Pierrot continues to fascinate and inspire, offering a glimpse into the rich history of stage entertainment during the 1890s.
