EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, for an enchanting evening of festive delight and theatrical wonderment! This charming scene outside a Victorian theatre on a Christmas card, circa 1890s, captures the magic and excitement of the holiday season as people arrive to witness a much-anticipated pantomime performance. The bustling street is filled with the sounds of horse hooves clattering on the cobblestones and the chatter of eager theatre-goers. Horse-drawn carriages and coaches line the road, transporting patrons to the grand theatre entrance. The historic building, adorned with elegant portico columns and arches, exudes an air of opulence and sophistication. As the crowd gathers, the anticipation builds for the evening's entertainment. The theatre's front stalls and boxes beckon, inviting guests to take their seats and immerse themselves in a colourful and historical production. The amphitheatre, bathed in the soft glow of gas lamps, promises an unforgettable night of laughter, music, and enchantment. This scene offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the theatre was the epitome of holiday entertainment and the magic of the pantomime brought joy and wonder to all who attended.
