EDITORS COMMENTS

Androcles and the Lion," a timeless comedy by Nobel laureate George Bernard Shaw, comes to life on the stage of Wallacks Theatre in New York City during the winter of 1915. In this iconic photograph, we find O.P. Heggie, who had previously brought the title role to life in London, portraying Androcles with an air of determination and compassion. His regal counterpart, the lion, is brought to vivid reality by the skilled performance of Phil Dwyer. Set in ancient Rome, the legend of Androcles tells the tale of a man who, while in exile, encounters a lion with a thorn in its paw. Androcles removes the thorn, and in gratitude, the lion spares Androcles' life. This heartwarming story of friendship between man and beast is brought to the stage with Shaw's signature wit and social commentary. The photograph, taken during the rehearsals for the New York production, captures a moment of connection between Heggie and Dwyer, showcasing the raw emotion and energy that would undoubtedly captivate audiences during the show's run. The image transports us back to a bygone era, when live theatre reigned supreme and the magic of the stage could transform even the most dangerous and wild creatures into beloved companions. This photograph, a testament to the power of theatre, stands as a reminder of the enduring appeal of Shaw's classic play and the unforgettable performances of its talented cast. The image, with its rich history and intriguing story, continues to captivate and inspire audiences over a century after its debut in New York City.
