EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and prepare to be transported into a world of fantastical mischief with this promotional postcard for the farcical play, 'The Brass Bottle' by F Anstey. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Folkestone's Pleasure Gardens Theatre, this image invites us into the magical realm of Anstey's whimsical tale. At the heart of the scene, a man in a top hat and cane, perhaps a character from the play, gazes intently into the mysterious brass bottle. The bottle, with its intricate engravings and ornate design, seems to hold the promise of untold wonders. The play, previously staged at The Vaudeville Theatre in London under the direction of Mr. Arthur Hardy's Company, promises a night of laughter and enchantment. The farcical comedy of 'The Brass Bottle' tells the story of Gaston Mayer, a poor student who stumbles upon a magical brass bottle that grants him three wishes. However, as with all things magical, there is a catch. Mayer's wishes come with unintended and often humorous consequences. This postcard, from the extensive collection of The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the world of 'The Brass Bottle' and the enchanting evening awaiting theatre-goers at Folkestone's Pleasure Gardens Theatre.
