EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich history of theatre and royal celebration in 19th century London. The image, titled "Crowds clamouring for the last few free seats to see George de Barnwell's 'Arthur and Bertrand' at the Adelphi Theatre, London to celebrate Edward and Alexandras wedding," dates back to 10 March 1863. The scene captures the excitement and anticipation of the crowd as they eagerly queue outside the Adelphi Theatre, hoping to secure the last remaining seats for the performance of George de Barnwell's play, "Arthur and Bertrand." The occasion holds special significance as it coincides with the wedding of Prince Edward, later known as King Edward VII, and Princess Alexandra of Denmark. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the historical moment, with the throng of people, dressed in their finest attire, pressing forward in a determined effort to secure a seat for the performance. The sense of disappointment and frustration is palpable as some in the crowd are turned away, unable to join their fellow Londoners in celebrating the royal union. The Adelphi Theatre, a renowned venue for drama and entertainment, played a pivotal role in this moment of history. The theatre's full house serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of live theatre and the power it holds to bring people together, even in the context of a royal celebration. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, inviting us to reflect on the shared experiences and emotions that have connected generations of theatre-goers. It serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of the stage and the unique role it plays in shaping our cultural heritage.
