EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the glamorous world of 1960s cinema. The Queen, dressed in regal elegance, graces the premier of Othello at the iconic Odeon Leicester Square. This prestigious event is held in support of the Toynbee Hall appeal committee, with Mrs Harold Wilson serving as its esteemed president. The image captures a momentous encounter between Her Majesty and two legendary figures of British acting: Maggie Smith and Sir Laurence Olivier. As they exchange warm smiles and firm handshakes, their shared passion for the arts radiates through the frame. Queen Elizabeth II's presence at this cultural extravaganza not only showcases her unwavering support for entertainment but also highlights her commitment to charitable causes. By attending events like these, she demonstrates her dedication to uplifting communities and promoting philanthropy. This photograph by Arthur Sidey encapsulates a significant chapter in both cinematic history and royal engagements. It serves as a timeless reminder of how art can unite people from all walks of life under one roof – be it on stage or within society itself.
