EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Tallulah Bankhead in the lead role of Iris St. Maughn in the 1925 stage adaptation of Michael Arlen's scandalous novel, The Green Hat, at the Adelphi Theatre in London. Bankhead, known for her bold and seductive stage presence, is seen here in an intense moment with co-stars Leonard Upton as Napier Harpenden and Barbara Dillon as Venice. The play, which was based on Arlen's controversial novel, was met with widespread criticism from the press for its provocative themes and bad taste. However, the sensational storyline and the undeniable allure of its stars made it a huge success with the public during the Roaring Twenties. The image, taken during a stormy scene, perfectly encapsulates the intrigue and passion that defined this groundbreaking production. Bankhead's portrayal of Iris, a woman who defies societal norms and pursues her desires, continues to be celebrated as a landmark moment in the history of modern theater.
