Newest Turns at the London Hippodrome, October 1900: A Spectacle of Vaudeville Variety This photograph captures a moment from the Newest Turns engagement at the London Hippodrome in October 1900. The Hippodrome, a renowned theatre located in Leicester Square, was renowned for its diverse and thrilling variety shows. This particular performance featured an impressive lineup of acts that left audiences in awe. At the forefront of the image, Eugene Sandow, the famous strong man, showcases his remarkable strength and physique. Sandow, a pioneer in bodybuilding, was a crowd favorite and often showcased his feats of strength, leaving the audience in amazement. To the left, Ghezzi the clown, with his distinctive red nose and oversized shoes, brings a touch of humor to the scene. Clowns were a staple of variety shows, and Ghezzi's antics would have had the audience in stitches. The Sisters O'Meers, graceful acrobats, are suspended in mid-air, performing a daring act on the wire. Their agility and poise were a sight to behold, and their acts were always met with applause and admiration. M. Batty and his famous bear complete the scene. Batty, a skilled animal trainer, had a way with animals, and his bear was a beloved part of his act. Together, they would entertain the audience with tricks and antics that showcased the incredible bond between man and beast. This photograph captures the essence of the Newest Turns at the London Hippodrome, a time when vaudeville variety shows were at their peak, and the theatre was a hub of entertainment and excitement.
