EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the cast of The Better Ole, led by Arthur Bourchier (centre), during their performance at the Oxford Theatre in London in 1917. The play, written by Bruce Bairnsfather and Arthur Eliot, was based on the popular cartoons published in The Bystander magazine during World War I. Produced by Charles B. Cochran, The Better Ole brought to life the humorous and humorous characters of Old Bill and his comrades, providing much-needed respite for soldiers and civilians alike during the trying times of the 1st Great War. Arthur Bourchier masterfully portrayed the central character of Old Bill, a weary but resilient British soldier, in this wartime entertainment. The cast, dressed in their period costumes, exude a sense of camaraderie and spirit, reflecting the unique bond formed between soldiers during the war. Bruce Bairnsfather's cartoons, which were known for their satirical take on the realities of trench life, were a source of comfort and laughter for those on the front lines. The transition of these cartoons to the stage allowed audiences to connect with the characters and stories in a more immersive way. The Better Ole was a testament to the power of entertainment during wartime, providing a much-needed distraction from the harsh realities of the conflict. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of humour and the human spirit in even the most challenging of times.
