EDITORS COMMENTS
The Dramatic Rescue of Michael Sunlocks from the Sulphur Mine: A Scene from Hall Caine's The Bondman, starring the Wentworth Crokes Company This flyer showcases a dramatic scene from Hall Caine's renowned play, The Bondman, which was touring to the Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham on 11th October 1909. The image, taken from Drury Lane, depicts the pivotal moment in Act II, scene 2, where the heroic character, Jason, rescues Michael Sunlocks from the depths of a sulphur mine. Both men had been unjustly imprisoned in this harsh environment. The theatrical production, brought to life by the Wentworth Crokes Company, was a popular entertainment choice for audiences seeking an engaging and thrilling experience. The play, with its powerful storyline and dramatic performances, was a staple of stage drama during this era. The image on the flyer captures the intensity of the scene, with the stormy sky and ominous rocks in the background, adding to the overall sense of danger and urgency. Jason, with a determined expression, reaches out to save Michael, who clings to him for dear life. The contrast between the two characters, one strong and savior-like, and the other weak and desperate, highlights the theme of bondage and freedom that runs throughout the play. The Bondman was a critically acclaimed and commercially successful production, and its tour to the Alexandra Theatre in Birmingham was highly anticipated by theatre-goers. This flyer serves as a testament to the enduring popularity of live theatre and the power of a well-crafted story to captivate and inspire audiences.
