EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a glimpse into the enchanting world of Les Cloches de Corneville, a French comic opera performed in English at the Theatre Royal in Plymouth during the early 20th century. The image showcases the elaborate tableau vivant, or living picture, featuring the Old Man, an elderly character from the production, surrounded by the bells of Corneville. The Old Man, with his wrinkled face and furrowed brow, sits at the center of the scene, his eyes closed in deep concentration as he counts the coins in his hand. The bells, an essential element of the opera, are artfully arranged around him, their metallic surfaces gleaming in the stage lights. The intricate details of the set design are on full display, from the intricately painted backdrop of the Corneville village to the ornate wooden table and the worn, leather-bound ledger in the Old Man's hands. Les Cloches de Corneville, with its delightful blend of music, comedy, and spectacle, was a popular entertainment choice for audiences in Plymouth and beyond. The opera, which tells the story of a poor bell-ringer who discovers a hidden fortune, was a beloved production that brought joy and laughter to generations of theatergoers. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of live theater and the magic that unfolds on the stage. It invites us to imagine the excitement and wonder that filled the Theatre Royal as the curtain rose and the Old Man and his bells came to life before the audience's eyes.
