EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this enchanting image of Nita's First, a delightful theatrical production that once graced the stage of the Novelty Theatre on Great Queen Street in London's vibrant Long Acre district. Circa 1888, this postcard invites us to take a peek behind the curtains and witness the wonder of a late Victorian-era children's show. The Novelty Theatre was renowned for its innovative and entertaining productions, and Nita's First was no exception. The stage is set with an elaborate alphabet backdrop, each letter adorned with intricate detail, while a baby, dressed in a frilly white outfit, sits atop a large prop book, eagerly pointing to the letters as if in the midst of a delightful learning experience. Surrounding the stage, a sea of young children, dressed in their Sunday best, gaze up at the performance with wide-eyed wonder and excitement. The atmosphere is electric, as the anticipation of discovery and the joy of learning come together in a magical moment. The Novelty Theatre was a place where imagination and education intertwined, creating a unique and memorable experience for children and adults alike. Nita's First represents the very best of this era, a time when the simple pleasures of life, such as a trip to the theatre, held the power to captivate and inspire. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when the world was a little bit smaller, and the magic of the theatre was a gateway to endless possibilities. Let the memories and the wonder of Nita's First live on, and may the enchantment of the past continue to inspire and delight us all.
