EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Charles Dickens in the role of Captain Bobadil from Ben Jonson's "Every Man in His Humour," a production that took place at the Royal Olympic Theatre in London in 1852. Dickens, a renowned English novelist, playwright, and social critic, was known for his exceptional acting skills and often appeared in various theatrical productions throughout his illustrious career. In this image, Dickens dons the Captain's hat and holds a sword, embodying the character's bravado and authority. The year is 1870, two decades after Dickens' theatrical debut, and he exudes a sense of confidence and poise that comes with experience. The photograph, taken during the later years of Dickens' life, offers a unique glimpse into his versatility as an artist and his ability to captivate audiences both on the page and on the stage. Ben Jonson's "Every Man in His Humour," first performed in 1598, is a satirical comedy that explores the complexities of human nature and the absurdities of societal norms. Dickens' portrayal of Captain Bobadil, a vain and boastful character, would have no doubt provided ample opportunity for the actor to showcase his comedic talents. Thackeray, a contemporary of Dickens, once remarked, "I have seen Dickens act, and I assure you he is a very fine actor." This photograph serves as a testament to Thackeray's observation, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Dickens' theatrical career and his ability to bring characters to life, both on the page and on the stage.
