EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of 'The Way of an Eagle,' brought to life through the captivating art of E.P. Kinsella's promotional postcard for the 1923 production of Ethel M. Dell's beloved novel, adapted for the stage. First performed at the Adelphi Theatre on June 20, 1922, this theatrical adaptation of Dell's 1912 novel of the same name, took the country by storm. As the touring production prepared to grace the Theatre Royal in Leamington Spa on September 17, 1923, excitement was at an all-time high. The image on this vintage postcard transports us to the exotic lands of Arabia, where the story unfolds. The eagle, a symbol of freedom and strength, soars above a desert landscape, with the sun setting in the background. The man in the foreground, dressed in Arabic attire, adds to the authenticity of the scene. The Way of an Eagle was a popular entertainment sensation during the 1920s, a decade known for its theatrical innovations and pantomime productions. This postcard serves as a reminder of the enchanting stories and captivating performances that brought audiences to the theatre during this era. As we gaze at this beautiful artwork, we are transported back in time, to an age of wonder and imagination, where the magic of live theatre came to life on the stage.
