EDITORS COMMENTS
Pour Passer le Temps: Tango Teas at the Queens Theatre, London, 1913 Amidst the bustling avenues of London's West End, the Queens Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue once played host to an extraordinary social scene. In this photograph from 1913, the theatre's interior has been transformed from its usual purpose as a venue for plays and performances, into an elegant setting for afternoon tea. The ornate stalls have been replaced by tables and chairs, setting the stage for a refined and entertaining pastime. The band, dressed in formal attire, takes position on the stage where tango dances once captivated audiences. The audience, dressed in the latest Edwardian fashion, engages in animated conversation, their elegantly adorned hats and suits a testament to the social significance of this event. The atmosphere is one of sophistication and leisure, as society's elite come together to 'pour passer le temps,' or 'pour passing the time.' The historical significance of this scene is not lost on us. The 1910s marked a time of great social change, with the rise of new forms of entertainment and the increasing popularity of tea culture. The Queens Theatre, with its grand architecture and central location, was the perfect setting for such an occasion. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where afternoon tea was more than just a simple meal, but a social event that brought together the fashionable elite of British society. The tango, with its passionate and sensual movements, added an air of excitement and allure to this already captivating scene.
