Step into the magical world of early 20th century theatre with this image from the touring production of "The Girl in the Train" at the Royal Victoria Theatre in Ramsgate, 1912. Adapted from Victor Leon's "Die Geschiedene Frau" (The Divorcee), this popular play with music by Leo Fall was first produced at the Vaudeville Theatre in London in 1910. In this enchanting promotional postcard, renowned photographer William Barribal captures the essence of the production's theatricality and charm. The image features Adrian Ross in the title role, dressed in an elegant evening gown, as she gracefully dances aboard a swirling train. The train's vibrant colors and intricate patterns add to the whimsical atmosphere, while the dapper gentleman in the background gazes at her in admiration. The swirling motion of the train and the dancers' fluid movements evoke a sense of excitement and romance, transporting the audience to another time and place. The play, which was often described as a pantomime, was known for its popular entertainment value and was a staple of the theatre scene in the 1910s. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of live theatre and the enchantment it brings to audiences. Whether you're a fan of dance, history, or simply looking for a glimpse into the past, this photograph is sure to delight and inspire.
