EDITORS COMMENTS
Passing of the Third Floor Back" is a captivating theatrical production that once graced the esteemed Opera House in the charming English town of Tunbridge Wells during the 1910s. This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment from the play, as a man in a top hat and overcoat, deep in thought, observes a woman in a pink dress and a maid, both standing on the third floor back of the Opera House. The intrigue deepens as a stranger in a cloak approaches from the shadows, adding an air of mystery and suspense to the scene. The title of Jerome K. Jerome's short moral tale comes from the third floor back, a space hidden from the audience's view, where the true nature of the characters is revealed. The Passing of the Third Floor Back was a popular and thought-provoking play that explored the duality of good and evil, often disguised in the most unexpected places. The audience was left wondering who was the true stranger, the angel or the devil, and what secrets the third floor back held. The elegantly dressed woman, with her demure expression and refined posture, contrasts sharply with the sinister figure of the stranger. The maid, standing protectively by her mistress, adds another layer of intrigue to the scene. The Opera House, with its ornate facade and grandeur, serves as the perfect backdrop for this mysterious and captivating story. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of English theatre during the early 20th century. The Passing of the Third Floor Back remains a timeless tale that continues to intrigue and delight audiences, long after the final curtain call.
