EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the beloved English comedian Dan Leno in his iconic role as Mother Goose in a 1903 pantomime production. The Edwardian-era image showcases Leno, dressed in an extravagant Mother Goose costume, complete with a large hat adorned with goose feathers and a long, flowing skirt. The comedian's expressive face is filled with mischief and humor, as he playfully interacts with a pet goose perched on his arm. Pantomime, a popular theatrical tradition in the UK, was known for its elaborate costumes, music, dance, and comedy. Dan Leno was a master of the art, renowned for his ability to bring laughter and joy to audiences with his cross-dressing performances and quick wit. In Mother Goose, he took on the dual role of the title character and the comic villain, ensuring a delightful mix of slapstick humor and heartfelt moments. The photograph, from The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the world of early 20th-century English theatre and the enduring appeal of Dan Leno's comedic talents. The image is a testament to the power of live entertainment and the timeless charm of pantomime, which continues to captivate audiences to this day.
