EDITORS COMMENTS
Marie Roze, a celebrated French soprano of the late 19th century, captivates the audience as Eily O'Connor in the opera "The Lily of Killarney" by Julius Benedict. Dressed in an authentic Irish costume, Roze embodies the character's spirit and charm, capturing the hearts of theatre-goers during the 1890s. With a graceful lean and an expressive face, she delivers a powerful performance that showcases her exceptional vocal abilities and acting skills. "The Lily of Killarney," a popular opera during the Victorian era, tells the story of Eily O'Connor, an Irish girl who falls in love with a British soldier despite the political tensions between their countries. Roze's portrayal of Eily's love, longing, and resilience resonated deeply with audiences, making her a favorite among theatre-goers. The Footlights favourites series, a collection of iconic theatrical moments, features this image of Marie Roze as Eily O'Connor. The photograph, taken during the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when live theatre was a primary form of entertainment and the stage was alive with the passion and drama of talented performers like Marie Roze.
