EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this programme cover from the Kingston Empire Theatre in Surrey, England, circa 1950. The vibrant design, featuring bold orange and blue hues, invites audiences to an evening of entertainment at this grand theatre. The theatre's name, "Kingston Empire Theatre," is proudly displayed at the top, with "Kingshot Theatres Ltd" below, indicating the company that managed the venue. The theatre's interior is showcased in the background, with the proscenium arch taking center stage. The intricately detailed mask on the arch is a common feature of traditional theatres, symbolizing the transformative power of theatre and the arts. The masks on either side of the arch, representing tragedy and comedy, further emphasize the range of emotions that audiences could expect to experience during a performance. Directed by Stanley Watson, the programme promises an exciting lineup of acts for the night. The theatre's interior is adorned with plush red seats, creating an inviting atmosphere for patrons to sit back and enjoy the show. The warm, ambient lighting and ornate decor add to the allure of the theatre, making for an unforgettable night out. The Kingston Empire Theatre was a beloved cultural institution in Surrey during the 1950s, offering a diverse range of performances, from music and dance to theatre and comedy. This programme cover is a snapshot of a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when live entertainment reigned supreme and the magic of the theatre was a source of joy and wonder for audiences of all ages.
