EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and prepare for an enchanting theatrical experience with 'The Knave of Diamonds' by Charlton Mann! Originally featured in Ethel M. Dells novel from 1912, this play made its debut at the Gaiety Theatre in Manchester on January 24, 1921, and graced the stage of the Globe Theatre on April 23, 1922. This promotional flyer, featuring the captivating artwork of H. Bailey, invites audiences to witness a 'Slashing Good Play' filled with popular entertainment and excitement. The title of the play is derived from the heroine's affectionate nickname for her suitor, whom she playfully calls the 'Queen of Hearts' while he, in turn, refers to her as the 'Knave of Diamonds.' As the curtain rises, prepare to be transported to a world of magic and merriment, as 'The Knave of Diamonds' transforms into a pantomime or 'panto' production, filled with laughter, song, and dance. This image of a man scrawling on a piece of paper, perhaps writing the final touches of the script or jotting down last-minute notes, adds to the behind-the-scenes charm of the theatrical experience. Join us at the Globe Theatre for an unforgettable night of entertainment as we bring 'The Knave of Diamonds' to life on stage, circa 1922. Get your tickets now and let the magic begin!
