Marie Lohr as Georgina Tidman in Pinero's Dandy Dick: A Captivating Portrayal of Cross-Dressing and Farce in the 1900s Theatre This striking photograph captures the enchanting Marie Lohr in the role of Georgina Tidman from Sir Arthur Pinero's farce, Dandy Dick. Dating back to the early 1900s, this image showcases Lohr's captivating stage presence and her ability to embody the intricacies of Pinero's intriguing characters. Georgina Tidman, a pivotal part in the play, is a young woman who disguises herself as a man, Dandy Dick, to win back her lover, Sir Arthur Hargrave, from the clutches of the scheming Lady Fotheringay. In this photograph, Lohr dons a dashing bowler hat and a tailored jacket, perfectly embodying the essence of Dandy Dick. Pinero's plays, known for their wit and social commentary, were popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Dandy Dick, a farce, was no exception, and Lohr's performance as Georgina Tidman was undoubtedly a highlight. Her cross-dressing portrayal added an extra layer of intrigue and excitement to the production, making it a must-see event for theatre-goers of the time. Marie Lohr's career spanned over four decades, and she was renowned for her versatility and talent. This photograph is a testament to her ability to captivate audiences with her performances, no matter the role or the genre. The 1900s theatre scene was a golden age for British actors, and Lohr was a shining star among them. This image serves as a reminder of the magic that unfolded on the stage during that era and the enduring impact of the performances that continue to captivate us today.
