EDITORS COMMENTS
by Walter William Ellis: A Glimpse into the 1930s British Theatre Scene This photograph, taken circa 1931, offers a glimpse into the world of British theatre during the 1930s, specifically the production of Walter William Ellis' play "Almost a Honeymoon." The image, which was first performed at the Grand Theatre in Croydon and later at the Garrick Theatre in London, before embarking on a tour to the Grand Theatre in Swansea, depicts a scene from the play. The photograph features a man, dressed in a top hat and holding a hatbox, standing in a dimly lit hotel corridor. He looks intently towards a door, as if expecting someone or something. The contrast between the red and white colors of the door and the black and white tones of the photograph create a striking visual effect, adding to the sense of anticipation and mystery. The scene takes place in a hotel, a common setting for many plays and films of the era. The use of a hotel as a backdrop speaks to the popularity of travel and adventure during the 1930s, as well as the growing trend of honeymoons as a post-wedding tradition. The man's attire, complete with a top hat, further emphasizes the play's period setting, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. The photograph also highlights the intricacies of theatrical production, with the corridor leading to a bedroom or a private room, suggesting a pivotal moment in the play. The man's position at the top of the staircase, looking down the corridor, adds to the sense of drama and suspense. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating look into the world of British theatre in the 1930s, a time of innovation, creativity, and cultural significance.
