EDITORS COMMENTS
A Wintery Scene of Lily Elsie and Bobby Howes in 'The Blue Train' (1927) This photograph captures the essence of a scene from the musical comedy 'The Blue Train,' which played at the Prince of Wales Theatre in 1927. The image features the renowned actress Lily Elsie and the talented actor Bobby Howes, who returned to the stage after a decade-long hiatus. The Blue Train was a popular play written by Reginald Arkell and Dion Titheradge, which centered around the famous Blue Train that transported the elite to fashionable resorts on the French Riviera and beyond. In this particular scene, the snow is falling gently, blanketing the landscape in a pristine white covering, as Lily Elsie and Bobby Howes engage in a lighthearted moment on the ski slopes. The play's combination of comedy and music resonated with audiences, making it a significant theatrical event of the time. The image of Lily Elsie and Bobby Howes, with their skis in hand and the snow gently falling around them, encapsulates the wintery charm and spirit of the production. This photograph, taken in August 17, 1927, is a testament to the enduring appeal of live theatre and the magic that unfolds on the stage. It is a reminder of a bygone era, where the simple pleasure of watching a performance could transport audiences to another world, filled with laughter, music, and the thrill of the unexpected.
