EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the essence of a classic pantomime production of Cinderella, as originally staged in 1897. The image features Cinderella (centre) in her blue gown and glass slipper, surrounded by her wicked and comically ugly sisters. The sisters, with their exaggerated features and colorful costumes, embody the traditional pantomime archetypes of the Dame and the Ugly Sisters. Pantomime, a unique form of British theatre, originated in the 16th century and evolved into a popular form of family entertainment in the 19th century. This production of Cinderella, with its vibrant costumes, lively music, and interactive audience participation, would have provided an enjoyable and memorable experience for audiences of all ages. The historical context of this photograph is significant, as it offers a glimpse into the rich theatrical traditions of the past. The use of exaggerated costumes and makeup, as seen in the sisters' outfits, was a common feature of pantomime productions during this era. The sisters' faces, painted with heavy makeup to emphasize their ugliness, were designed to elicit laughter and amusement from the audience. Moreover, the photograph also highlights the importance of gender roles in pantomime. The Dame, traditionally played by a man in drag, was a popular character who often provided comic relief and commentary on the action. The Ugly Sisters, with their exaggerated femininity and cruelty, provided a contrast to the delicate and virtuous Cinderella. Overall, this photograph is a fascinating window into the world of historical pantomime and the unique theatrical traditions that have shaped the art form over the centuries. The image of Cinderella and her ugly sisters serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of this beloved fairy tale and the joy and laughter it continues to bring to audiences today.
