EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and prepare to be transported back in time to the roaring twenties at the world-renowned London Hippodrome! This photograph captures the electrifying moment from the iconic revue production, 'The Jackdaw of Rheims,' which premiered at the Hippodrome in 1923. The Jackdaw of Rheims was a groundbreaking jazz-age spectacle that left audiences breathless with its daring performances and innovative staging. The scene depicted in this photograph showcases the unforgettable moment when a jackdaw, the mischievous and cunning bird, takes center stage. With its striking plumage and bold personality, the jackdaw became an emblem of the irreverent spirit of the era. The London Hippodrome, a legendary theatre that opened its doors in 1900, was the place to be for Londoners seeking an escape from the ordinary. The theatre was renowned for its extravagant productions and daring acts, which often pushed the boundaries of what was considered acceptable. The Jackdaw of Rheims was no exception, with its provocative costumes, daring acrobatics, and jazz-infused music. This photograph offers a tantalizing glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the arts were a daring and thrilling experience. The Jackdaw of Rheims and the London Hippodrome remain an important part of London's rich theatrical history, and this photograph serves as a testament to the enduring power of live performance to captivate and inspire.
