Anxious Moments for Proprietors: A Victorian Scene of Cartoon and Music Hall Licensing, 1881 (Entracte, Alfred Bryan, Law, Legal, License, Management, Managers, Owner, Lessee, Top Hat, Hats, Session, Sessions, House, Smiling, Happy) This cartoon print, dated 1881, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the intricacies and anxieties of Victorian music hall licensing. The image, titled "Anxious Moments for Proprietors," depicts a group of men, likely music hall managers or proprietors, gathered around a table, each wearing top hats, as they await the outcome of a licensing session. The session, indicated by the "Entracte" label on the wall, is a crucial moment in the music hall's operation, as the men must secure the necessary licenses to continue their entertainment business. The scene is filled with a palpable sense of anticipation and anxiety. One man, with a furrowed brow and clenched fists, seems particularly concerned, while another, with a hopeful expression, looks to the figure of "Law" personified, who stands ominously in the background, holding a gavel and a stack of papers. The legal complexities of music hall licensing are further emphasized by the presence of a stack of papers and legal documents on the table. Despite the tension, there are also moments of levity in the scene. One man, with a confident smile, holds up a hat, perhaps indicating that he has secured a license, while another, with a more subdued expression, adjusts his hat, perhaps in preparation for a long night ahead. Overall, this cartoon print provides a fascinating insight into the world of Victorian music hall licensing, highlighting the importance of the licensing session and the anxieties and hopes that came with it.
