EDITORS COMMENTS
Daddies" by John L. Hobble: A Comedic Delight from the Roaring Twenties Step back in time to the 1920s and experience the hilarity of "Daddies," a classic comedy by John L. Hobble, as depicted in this photograph from The Michael Diamond Collection. The image, taken at the Town Hall Theatre in Cromer and previously at the Haymarket Theatre in London during 1921, showcases a moment from this beloved production. The stage is set with dim lighting, creating an intimate and mysterious atmosphere. A man in a dark blue suit, with a striped shirt and irritated expression, stands center stage. He is surrounded by a group of children, who are engrossed in their playtime antics. One girl, with an excited grin, holds a toy duck with wheels and a string attached, while another child, with a mischievous look, attempts to distract her father by waving a toy under his nose. In the foreground, a child clutches a newspaper, while another playfully pulls a cigar from his father's mouth. The comedic chaos unfolds as the man, clearly exasperated, tries to maintain control over his brood. The children's innocent mischief and the father's attempts to manage their antics create a heartwarming and humorous scene, transporting us back to a simpler time. "Daddies" is a testament to the enduring power of family and the universal themes of parenthood, making it a must-see theatrical production from the 1920s. This photograph, with its rich history and captivating composition, is a treasure from the Mary Evans Picture Library and offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the timeless joy and laughter that comes from the stage.
