EDITORS COMMENTS
was a theatrical production first presented at the Theatre Royal in Brighton on August 11, 1902, and later at Terry's Theatre in March 1903. This play, with music by Sidney Jones, tells the story of Lady Molly Martingale, a young woman of vivacious spirit and unconventional ways. In her quest to win the heart of the man she loves, she dons a disguise and presents herself as a man. This stunning photograph print by George H. Jessop, featured in a promotional booklet for Terry's Theatre, showcases the allure and charm of Lady Molly. The 24-page booklet, filled with illustrations and reproductions of sheet music covers, served as a promotional tool to boost sales of the popular tunes from the production. The play, a pantomime, was a staple of the 1900s theatrical scene and showcased the talent and creativity of Sidney Jones, who also served as the production's director. The combination of music, comedy, and drama made "My Lady Molly" a must-see for theatre-goers of the era. George H. Jessop's photograph captures the essence of the production, with Lady Molly's expressive eyes and confident posture conveying the determination and playful spirit of the character. The image, along with the accompanying booklet, offers a glimpse into the world of popular entertainment during the early 1900s and the enduring appeal of the pantomime tradition.
