EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken on 10 January 1910, showcases the stunning exterior of the Opera House and Empire Theatre in York, adorned with elaborate decorations for the production of 'Aladdin.' The Opera House, located on Colliergate, and the Empire Theatre, situated on Micklegate, were two popular entertainment venues in the city that did not produce their own pantomimes but instead hosted touring companies. The anticipation of the holiday season is palpable in the air, as the festive green and gold decorations adorn the buildings, symbolizing the spirit of the oriental-themed pantomime that was about to enchant audiences. The Opera House, with its grand facade and intricate details, served as the perfect backdrop for the magical tale of 'Aladdin.' The production of 'Aladdin' was a much-awaited event for the residents of York, as venues that did not produce their own pantomimes often had to wait until after Christmas to secure a touring company. In this case, the city's residents were fortunate to have the production arrive earlier in the season. The stage was set for an unforgettable performance, with the iconic character of Aladdin and his loyal friend, the Genie, ready to bring the cave of wonders to life. The Opera House and Empire Theatre were the perfect settings for this magical journey, transporting audiences to a world of enchantment and wonder. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history of pantomime and live entertainment in York during the early 1910s, a time when the magic of the stage brought communities together and created cherished memories that lasted a lifetime.
