EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives transports us back to the enchanting world of theatre in 1866. The image showcases the grand façade of Sheffield Theatre Royal, a cultural gem nestled in Yorkshire's vibrant cityscape. Its walls have witnessed countless tales unfold, but this particular production steals the spotlight - "Harlequin Hey Diddle Diddle His Cat and Comical Fiddle or King Snowball and His Son Jack Frost". Penned exclusively for this esteemed theater by Edwin Young, this pantomime promises an evening filled with laughter, wonder, and holiday cheer. As we gaze at the photograph, we can almost hear the echoes of applause and feel the anticipation that must have filled these hallowed halls. The elaborate set design hints at a whimsical narrative where Harlequin embarks on a mischievous adventure alongside his feline companion and comical fiddle. Meanwhile, King Snowball and his son Jack Frost add an icy touch to this fantastical tale. Preserved meticulously by Sheffield Local Studies Library (y12706), this rare original print allows us to appreciate both the historical significance of Sheffield Theatre Royal as well as its commitment to showcasing unique productions tailored specifically for its audience.
