EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment from the 1886 French play "The Crocodile" by Michel Sardou, as performed at the prestigious Theatre de la Porte-Saint-Martin in Paris. The scene depicts Lieutenant Lotus (played by a dapper gentleman in the foreground), a determined and disciplined military man, as he discovers the hidden lovers, Richard Kolt (a man in a suit, crouching in the undergrowth) and Miss De Witt (a beautiful woman, also hiding in the foliage). The moon casts a soft, ethereal glow over the historical Parisian theatre, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. Set in the 1880s, "The Crocodile" is a thrilling and romantic play that explores themes of love, betrayal, and the complexities of human relationships. The play's title refers to a metaphorical crocodile that represents the destructive power of jealousy and obsession. In this scene, Lieutenant Lotus has been searching for the elusive Miss De Witt, who has been accused of a crime she did not commit. Believing he has finally found her, he approaches the hiding place in the moonlit undergrowth, guns at the ready. However, as he discovers the true identity of the man hiding with her, the tension between the characters reaches a fever pitch. This moment from "The Crocodile" is a testament to the enduring power of live theatre to transport us to another time and place, and to explore the depths of the human experience. The intricately designed scenery and period costumes add to the authenticity of the production, transporting us back to the historic Theatre de la Porte-Saint-Martin in Paris, where this scene was originally performed.
