EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting world of Rutland Boughton's music drama, "The Immortal Hour," which was first performed at the Regent Theatre in 1923. Adapted from the play by Fiona Macleod and based on Celtic mythology, the production marked the revival of this popular theatrical work following its initial debuts at the Old Vic in 1920 and Regent Theatre in 1922. The Immortal Hour transported audiences to a fantastical realm filled with magic, mystery, and otherworldly beings. The production's elaborate costumes, as seen in this image, were a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic vision that brought the mythical characters to life. From the shimmering gowns of the ethereal beings to the intricately designed armor of the warriors, each costume added an essential layer to the storytelling and immersed the audience in the enchanting world of Celtic folklore. Despite the production's captivating visuals, critics of the time found it challenging to encapsulate the complex narrative of The Immortal Hour in their reviews. The Times theatre critic, for instance, praised the costumes extensively but acknowledged the difficulty in explaining the story's intricacies. Nonetheless, the visual spectacle of the production left a lasting impression on audiences and solidified Rutland Boughton's reputation as a visionary theatrical artist. This photograph serves as a captivating reminder of the magical and imaginative world of The Immortal Hour and the enchanting theatrical experiences that defined the 1920s.
