EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1881, showcases a group of working class children as they prepare to perform as pantomime fairies on the Victorian stage. The rich history of pantomime in England can be traced back to the 16th century, but it was during the Victorian era that the tradition truly flourished. Pantomime was a unique form of entertainment that combined elements of music, dance, comedy, and drama, often with a moral or social message. The children in this photograph, dressed in intricately designed fairy costumes, embody the essence of the magical and fantastical world of pantomime. Their expressions reveal a sense of excitement and anticipation as they prepare to bring joy and wonder to their audiences. The Victorian era was a time when class distinctions were deeply entrenched in society, and the opportunity for working class children to perform on stage was a rare and precious one. The use of children in pantomime productions was a common practice during this time, as they added an element of innocence and charm to the performances. However, their involvement often came with long hours, harsh working conditions, and low pay. Despite these challenges, the children in this photograph radiate a sense of pride and determination, reflecting the resilience and spirit of the working class community during the Victorian era. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of pantomime and the important role that working class children played in bringing this beloved tradition to life. It also serves as a testament to the power of the arts to transcend social and economic boundaries, providing a source of joy and inspiration for people of all backgrounds.
