EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Queen Mary Theatre in Basra, Iraq, during the First World War, around 1916. The theatre, named after Queen Mary of Teck, served as an essential recreational space for British soldiers stationed in the Middle East. The image showcases the grandeur of the building, with its ornate facade and impressive columns, standing proudly amidst the bustling streets of Basra. Soldiers in uniforms can be seen milling about, some deep in conversation, while others appear to be engaged in various activities. The theatre provided a much-needed respite from the harsh realities of war, offering a sense of normalcy and familiarity in an unfamiliar and often challenging environment. The Queen Mary Theatre was more than just a building; it was a symbol of hope and morale for the soldiers, a testament to the enduring human spirit in the face of adversity. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a moment of respite and camaraderie amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the First World War.
