EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment from the 1909 production of "The Arcadians," a musical comedy written by Mark Ambient and Alexander M Thompson, with lyrics by Arthur Wimperis and music by Lionel Monckton and Howard Talbot. Set in Edwardian London, the Arcadians, a group of idealistic characters, have arrived in England to spread their message of truth and beauty. In this image, the excitement of Askwood racecourse is palpable as the crowd cheers for Smith/Simplicitas, played by an unidentified actor, as he rides The Deuce down the final straight to win. The elegantly dressed men and women in the audience, their faces filled with delight and anticipation, add to the lively atmosphere of the scene. The Arcadians, with its witty lyrics and catchy tunes, was first produced at the Shaftesbury Theatre and quickly became a sensation, offering a delightful escape from the reality of early 20th century life. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of live theatre and the magic it brings to its audiences.
