EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the British Film Institute, we are transported back to 1939 as we witness the incomparable Martyn Green in Victor Schertzinger's production of "The Mikado". Dressed in traditional Japanese attire, Green exudes an air of elegance and charm that perfectly embodies his character. As our eyes meet with Green's, it is impossible not to be drawn into his performance. With a fan delicately held in one hand, he effortlessly captures the essence of a refined gentleman from ancient Japan. His posture and expression reveal a deep understanding of the role, showcasing both his talent as an actor and his dedication to bringing Gilbert and Sullivan's beloved operetta to life. "The Mikado" has long been celebrated for its witty lyrics and catchy melodies, but it is performers like Martyn Green who truly elevate these works to greatness. Through this photo print, we catch a glimpse of the magic that unfolded on stage during those unforgettable performances. This image serves as a testament not only to Green's incredible portrayal but also to the enduring power of theater itself. It reminds us that even after more than eight decades since its creation, "The Mikado" continues to captivate audiences worldwide. With this remarkable snapshot preserved by the British Film Institute, we are reminded once again why Martyn Green remains one of musical theater's most cherished talents.
