EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the enchanting world of 1920s theatre with this promotional postcard for Reginald Berkeley's production of "The Lady With A Lamp." Originally titled "Florence Nightingale" and first performed at the Arts Theatre in London on May 5, 1929, and later at the Garrick Theatre on January 24, 1929, this popular play was brought to life by the great London production team. Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies shines in the title role, portraying the legendary nurse Florence Nightingale with grace and poise. The image on this postcard, taken during the Gaiety Theatre's production in Hastings on August 26, 1929, captures the essence of Ffrangcon-Davies' captivating performance. The Lady With A Lamp was a staple of the 1920s theatrical scene, with its combination of drama, history, and human interest resonating with audiences. The play was not just a serious production, but also included elements of pantomime and panto, making it a popular and entertaining experience for all. This beautifully preserved postcard is a testament to the enduring appeal of live theatre and the talent of those who brought this classic production to life. Whether you're a fan of the 1920s or simply appreciate the art of the stage, this postcard is a must-have addition to any collection.
