EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Delightful Musical Comedy Revue at the Palace Theatre, Gloucester in the 1910s Step back in time to the enchanting world of musical comedy with this image from the Pretty Darlings revue, performed at the Palace Theatre in Gloucester around 1915. This delightful production, written by Syd Beckett and Edwin Turner, showcases a lively and youthful cast of women, dressed in pastel colours and adorned with elegant accessories. The scene depicted in this postcard is set against a backdrop of a moonlit window, adding an air of mystery and romance to the performance. The women, with their expressive faces and animated expressions, seem to be lost in the music and the moment, inviting the audience to join in their joy and laughter. Musical comedy was a popular form of entertainment during the early 20th century in the UK, and the Pretty Darlings revue was no exception. With its catchy tunes, light-hearted humour, and beautiful costumes, this production provided an escape from the daily grind and offered a glimpse into a more carefree and colourful world. The Palace Theatre in Gloucester was a prominent venue for such productions, and the Pretty Darlings revue no doubt drew large crowds of eager theatre-goers. This postcard serves as a charming reminder of the magic and wonder of live theatre during the 1910s, and invites us to imagine the excitement and anticipation felt by those who attended this delightful musical comedy revue. This image is part of The Michael Diamond Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library and is a must-see for anyone with an interest in theatre history, musical comedy, or the social and cultural landscape of the early 20th century in the UK.
