EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of musical comedy in the early 1900s, featuring the beloved song "If Girls Had Wings" from the musical comedy "The Medal and the Maid." The image showcases Merva Sunningdale, portrayed by Miss Ruth Vincent, in a poignant moment during the performance. Dressed in an elegant Edwardian outfit, complete with a full skirt and bonnet, Merva holds the hem of her skirt as she gazes upwards, her expression filled with longing and yearning. The musical comedy "The Medal and the Maid," with music by Sidney Jones and lyrics by Charles H. Taylor, premiered in London in the late 1900s. The show was a huge success, and "If Girls Had Wings" became one of its most popular numbers. The song's lyrics express the desire of young women to have the freedom and power that wings would give them, allowing them to soar above the limitations of their everyday lives. Keith Prowse, a renowned theatrical photographer of the era, captured this moment of pure emotion and expression during a performance of "The Medal and the Maid." The photograph is a testament to the power of musical comedy to transport audiences and evoke strong emotions through music, dance, and storytelling. This image is a precious piece of history, offering a glimpse into the world of musical comedy during the Edwardian era and the enduring appeal of the art form.
