EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting presence of Jessie Preston as she embodies the iconic role of Robinson Crusoe on the stage of the Grand Theatre in Islington during the 1890s. Dressed in an authentic late Victorian costume, Preston masterfully portrays the resilient and resourceful castaway, complete with a parasol for protection against the desert sun and a rifle for hunting. The image transports us back to the world of Daniel Defoe's classic novel, where the intrepid Crusoe is stranded on a deserted island after a shipwreck. Preston's portrayal of Crusoe was undoubtedly a sight to behold, as she skillfully navigated the challenges of cross-dressing in a time when such roles were unconventional for women. Her performance no doubt left audiences in awe, as she brought to life the determination, ingenuity, and isolation that defines the character. The photograph, with its rich details and evocative setting, offers a glimpse into the magical world of theatre during the late Victorian era, where the imagination of the audience was transported to far-off lands and extraordinary adventures. The Grand Theatre in Islington was a popular venue for productions during this time, and Jessie Preston's portrayal of Robinson Crusoe was surely one of its most memorable. This photograph, with its intriguing subject matter and stunning visual detail, serves as a testament to the power of theatre to transport us to new worlds and inspire our imaginations.
