EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to the enchanting world of Christmas entertainment in 1932, as depicted on the front cover of Britannia and Eve magazine. This illustration showcases the excitement and drama of a theatrical performance, with a pantomime scene unfolding on stage. A graceful ballerina, poised in a delicate pose, is surrounded by the colorful characters of a harlequin and a menacing clown. The harlequin, dressed in his iconic checkered costume, bravely shields the helpless ballerina from the advances of the clown, who steps out ominously from the red theatre curtains. The sword held by the harlequin adds an element of danger and suspense to the scene, as the audience eagerly anticipates the outcome of this dramatic act. The historical significance of the 1930s is reflected in the vintage style of the illustration, transporting us back to a time when live theatre and pantomime shows were a cherished holiday tradition. This image is a testament to the enduring appeal of theatrical performances and the magical world of pantomime, where good triumphs over evil and laughter and excitement abound.
