EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library showcases an intriguing cast list and advertisements page from the Princess Ida programme of the celebrated Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, performed at the Savoy Theatre in London during the late Victorian era, around the 1880s. The programme, now beautifully preserved in sepia tones, features an array of distinguished gentlemen and a few elegant women, all dressed in medieval costumes, setting the scene for the fantastical tale of Princess Ida and her scholarly suitors. The cast list includes notable performers such as George Grossmith, Keith Prowse, and Rutland Barrington, who graced the Savoy Theatre stage with their talent. Below the cast list, various advertisements catch the eye, showcasing an array of Victorian trade services and products. Edenia Perfume, Coulterman's Fryer, Sparkes Hall Bootmakers, and Regent Street Ticket Agent are just a few of the businesses that sought the attention of the theatre-going audience. Additionally, advertisements for tobacco products like Prince of Wales Smoking Mixture and cigarettes from Fryer's Tobacco Company add to the authenticity of the era, reflecting the common practice of smoking during this time. The advertisements not only served as a source of revenue for the theatre but also provided essential services and products to the patrons, enhancing their overall experience. This fascinating glimpse into the past offers a captivating look at the rich history of theatre and advertising during the late Victorian era, making it a must-have for any collection of historical photographs or theatre memorabilia.
