EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Charles Dickens in an unexpected role as Sir Charles Coldstream in the play "Used Up," staged in London during the year 1850. Dickens, renowned for his literary genius, is often remembered for his works such as "A Tale of Two Cities," "Great Expectations," and "Oliver Twist," which have left an indelible mark on English literature. However, this image offers a rare glimpse into his theatrical side. Sir Charles Coldstream was a character in the play "Used Up," a melodrama written by George Lacy Kettle and James Malcolm Rymer. The play, which dealt with themes of poverty, redemption, and social injustice, was a popular sensation in the mid-19th century. Dickens' involvement in the production was a surprise to many, as he was known more for his writing than his acting skills. In this image, Dickens is seen holding a bowl and a spoon, possibly during a scene where he portrays the character's humble circumstances. The historical setting of the photograph, with its ornate costumes and theatrical backdrop, adds to the intrigue and allure of this unique moment in Dickens' storied career. The photograph, taken around 1850, is a testament to Dickens' versatility and his willingness to explore various artistic avenues. Although Dickens continued to write and publish throughout the 1850s and 1860s, this image serves as a reminder of his brief foray into the world of acting. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time, allowing us to witness a fascinating moment in the life of one of the greatest literary figures in history.
