EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Oscar Wilde's classic comedy, The Importance of Being Earnest, as it was brought to life on the London stage in November 1909. The image features George Alexander in the role of Jack Worthing, the dashing and somewhat hapless protagonist, alongside Stella Patrick Campbell as the beautiful and headstrong Lady Gwendolen Fairfax, and Helen Rous as the imperious and formidable Lady Bracknell. The historical production, which marked the 30th anniversary of the play's premiere, was a major event in the theatrical world of the time. Wilde's witty and sophisticated comedy of manners continued to delight audiences, and this production, with its talented and experienced cast, was no exception. Alexander, a respected and accomplished actor of the day, brings a charming and endearing quality to the role of Jack Worthing. His portrayal perfectly captures the character's earnestness, both in name and in deed, as he navigates the complex web of misunderstandings and mistaken identities that form the heart of the play. Patrick Campbell, as Lady Gwendolen, exudes an air of sophistication and poise, while also delivering the character's sharp wit and sarcasm with expert timing. Her portrayal of the young lady's infatuation with the name "Ernest" and her disdain for Jack's given name, Jack, adds a delightful layer of comedy to the production. Helen Rous, as Lady Bracknell, brings a commanding presence to the stage as the stern and formidable matriarch. Her stern demeanor and sharp tongue are on full display in this image, as she delivers one of the play's most famous lines, "A handbag?" to Jack, with a look of disdain that is both amusing and intimidating. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest and the talent of the actors who brought it to life on the London stage in 1909.
