EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of The Student Prince, as depicted in this vintage promotional postcard from the 1920s. The image features a dashing young man in military uniform, evoking the romantic and theatrical atmosphere of the popular play. The Student Prince, with music by Sigmund Romberg, was first produced at His Majesty's Theatre in London on February 3, 1926. Harry Welchman was the touring Prince, but he did not appear in the London cast. This postcard offers a glimpse into the theatrical excitement of the era, with its ornate design and intriguing tagline, "The most popular entertainment of the Twenties!" The Student Prince was a pantomime, a type of musical comedy that was prevalent in British theatre during the 1920s. The play's story follows the adventures of a German prince who falls in love with a tavern keeper's daughter while studying in Heidelberg. The romantic tale, filled with music and dance, captured the hearts of audiences and remains a beloved classic of the musical theatre genre. This postcard is a charming reminder of the magic and wonder of live theatre in the 1920s, and a testament to the enduring appeal of timeless stories and memorable performances.
