Through The Divorce Court

EDITORS COMMENTS
by Max Goldberg: A Glimpse into the Dramatic World of Edwardian Divorce Proceedings Step back in time with this promotional postcard for Max Goldberg's play, "Through The Divorce Court," first produced at the Lyric Theatre in Hammersmith on May 5, 1902. This theatrical masterpiece, presented by Henry Chattell & Jack Denton's Company, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Edwardian divorce proceedings. The image on this postcard showcases the intensity and drama of a divorce court scene. A stern judge presides over the proceedings, his gaze fixed on the couple before him. The father, dressed in formal attire, clutches his son tightly, protecting him from the prying eyes of the court. The mother, distraught and heartbroken, weeps in the arms of a sympathetic friend. The children, confused and scared, look on from the sidelines. Divorce was a popular form of entertainment in the early 1900s, often presented as pantomimes or plays. These productions provided an escape for audiences, allowing them to witness the drama and intrigue of real-life divorce cases from the comfort of their seats. "Through The Divorce Court" was no exception, and its theatrical portrayal of the emotional turmoil and legal complexities of divorce captured the imagination of the public. Max Goldberg's play was a significant part of the theatrical landscape of the time, and this postcard serves as a reminder of the powerful impact it had on audiences over a century ago. Whether you're a history buff, a theatre enthusiast, or simply fascinated by the human condition, this postcard offers a unique and intriguing glimpse into the world of Edwardian divorce proceedings.
