EDITORS COMMENTS
The Dancing Mistress" by James Tanner, a captivating scene from the 1912 musical production of the same name, featuring music by Lionel Monckton. This enchanting image transports us to the picturesque Swiss Oberwald, where the George Dances Co. performed on their tour to the Aquarium in Great Yarmouth on 28th July 1913. The snow-covered slope, adorned with trimmed fir trees, sets the stage for an unforgettable winter performance. In the foreground, a graceful and elegant mistress, dressed in a flowing, fur-trimmed gown, dances exuberantly with a partner. The joy and energy of their movements are reflected in their radiant smiles, as they lose themselves in the music and the moment. The snow continues to fall gently around them, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. The production of "The Dancing Mistress" premiered at the Adelphi Theatre in London on 19th October 1912, and the George Dances Co.'s performance in Great Yarmouth was part of their touring repertoire. This image captures the magic and enchantment of the production, transporting us back in time to an era of romance, music, and dance. The intricate details of the scene, from the snowflakes in mid-air to the textures of the fur and fabric, bring the image to life and make it a true work of art. This photograph is not only a testament to the talent of James Tanner and Lionel Monckton, but also to the enduring power of dance and music to captivate and inspire.
