EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the aftermath of the devastating fire that consumed The Theatre Royal in Exeter on the fateful night of September 5, 1887. The theatre, which had previously been destroyed by fire in 1885, was once again reduced to ashes, claiming the lives of 187 innocent people. The cause of the blaze remains unclear, but the lack of proper safety measures and overcrowding are believed to have contributed to the tragic loss of life. The theatre, a beloved cultural institution in Exeter, stood at the heart of the community, and its destruction left a deep sense of grief and shock in its wake. The image, published in the Graphic magazine, serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive power of fire and the importance of safety measures in public buildings. The memory of that fateful night in 1887 continues to cast a long shadow over the history of Exeter and its Theatre Royal.
