EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Patrick Campbell, née Beatrice Stella Tanner (1865-1940), captivates the audience in this evocative photograph as she assumes the role of the mysterious title character in the melodrama "The Black Domino" at the Adelphi Theatre in London, 1893. The image captures Campbell in mid-pose, her expressive face conveying a sense of intrigue and drama that would have left audiences on the edge of their seats. Dressed in the iconic black domino mask and cloak, Campbell's transformation into the enigmatic character was surely a sight to behold. Campbell, an English actress of great renown, was known for her powerful and emotive performances on the stage. Her career spanned over four decades, during which she appeared in numerous plays, including those by the great playwrights of the time, such as Shaw, Wilde, and Ibsen. This photograph, taken during the height of her career, serves as a testament to her talent and the impact she had on the world of theatre. The Black Domino was a popular melodrama that first premiered in 1836 and was revived numerous times throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The play, which tells the story of a woman seeking revenge against her unfaithful husband, provided Campbell with an opportunity to showcase her acting prowess and captivate audiences with her portrayal of the titular character. This photograph, a precious piece of theatre history, offers a glimpse into the past and the world of Victorian melodrama, providing a fascinating insight into the life and career of one of the most celebrated actresses of her time.
