EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the wit and charm of Oscar Wilde's classic comedy, The Importance of Being Ernest, as depicted in this promotional postcard from the 1909 St. James Theatre revival. This production marked the return of George Alexander and Allan Aynesworth to their original roles as Algernon Moncrieff and Jack Worthing, respectively. The female leads, Stella Patrick Campbell and Rosalie Toller, brought new life to the characters of Gwendolyn Fairfax and Cecily Cardew. Despite the advanced age of the leading actors, the production proved to be as popular and entertaining as ever, with audiences flocking to the theatre for eleven consecutive months. The Importance of Being Ernest, first produced at the St. James Theatre on 14th February 1895, had once again become a must-see theatrical event in the early 1900s. This postcard offers a glimpse into the world of pantomime and panto, a theatrical tradition that was a staple of British entertainment in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The ornate design and intricate details of the image transport us back to a time when the stage was a place of wonder and delight, where actors like George Alexander, Allan Aynesworth, Stella Patrick Campbell, and Rosalie Toller brought the works of great playwrights like Oscar Wilde to life for generations to enjoy.
