EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful photograph captures the essence of the Mikado cast from a production of the renowned Gilbert and Sullivan operetta in the 1920s. The image features seven enchanting cast members, six women and one man, all dressed in traditional Japanese kimonos and holding fans. The women exude grace and elegance, with one of them playfully shielding herself from the sun with an open parasol over her shoulder. The man, dressed in a formal Japanese-inspired outfit, completes the scene with a charming smile. The Mikado, a comic opera in two acts, was first performed in 1885 and has since become a beloved classic of the operetta genre. The production in this photograph is from the early 20th century, a time when the popularity of Japanese culture in the West was at its peak. The intricate costumes and the use of fans and parasols were common elements in the staging of this operetta during this era. The cast members in this photograph appear to be in high spirits, reflecting the lighthearted and joyful nature of the Mikado. Their costumes, with their vibrant colors and intricate patterns, add to the visual appeal of the photograph. This image offers a glimpse into the history of the Mikado and the theatrical traditions of the early 20th century. With its combination of comedy, music, and history, this photograph is a true treasure for fans of the operetta and the arts.
