EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases a vintage theatrical flier for the production of "The Blue Moon" by Harold Ellis, which toured to the Londesborough Theatre in Scarborough on August 27, 1906. The production was led by Robert Courtneidge, a renowned figure in the early 20th century British theatre scene. The flier, designed in the shape of a Burmese idol, adds an intriguing and exotic touch to the promotion. The closed idol design effectively conceals the details of the production, creating an air of mystery and intrigue. The Blue Moon was a musical comedy with music by Howard Talbot, and it featured the acting talents of Paul Rubens. The production was part of a touring schedule that brought live entertainment to various theatres across the country. The use of a Burmese idol as the flier design was an innovative marketing strategy that likely drew in audiences with its unique and eye-catching appearance. The photograph print offers a glimpse into the rich history of British theatre and the creative ways in which productions were promoted during this era. The intricate design of the flier, with its closed Burmese idol shape, adds an additional layer of intrigue to this fascinating piece of theatre history.
