EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the intense focus and dramatic presence of British actor Horace Hodges (1863-1951) as he portrays the title role in the play "Lightnin'" at the prestigious Shaftesbury Theatre in London during the 1920s. The production, which took place in 1925, was one of many notable roles for Hodges in his long and illustrious career on the stage. In this scene from the courtroom drama, Hodges plays the part of a defendant on trial, his face etched with a mixture of fear, defiance, and determination as he testifies before the jury and the stern, unyielding judge. The theatrical lighting illuminates his face, casting deep shadows and highlighting the creases and lines that tell the story of a life lived to the fullest. The play "Lightnin'" was a popular choice for productions during the 1920s, and its dramatic scenes and compelling characters resonated with audiences. Hodges' powerful performance as the troubled defendant no doubt added to the play's success and solidified his reputation as a masterful actor. This portrait of Horace Hodges in character offers a glimpse into the world of theatrical performances during the 1920s and the intense emotion and energy that could be found on the stages of London's great theatres. With its intriguing courtroom setting and complex characters, "Lightnin'" remains a fascinating piece of theatre history and a testament to the enduring power of live performance.
