EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 1992, we are transported back in time to witness the Troy Players on the set of their latest play, J. B. Priestley's "When We Are Married". The talented cast is adorned in exquisite Edwardian dresses and suits, perfectly capturing the essence of 1908 in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The scene unfolds within the charming Town Hall of Fowey, Cornwall, where for four unforgettable nights, these skilled actors brought this timeless tale to life. As they strike a pose for Jonathan Barker's lens, their passion and dedication shine through. Each member of the troupe radiates an undeniable energy that promises an extraordinary performance. Amongst them stands an antique camera - a silent observer capturing this momentous occasion forever. Its presence serves as a reminder that art transcends time and space; it immortalizes fleeting moments like these so future generations can appreciate them. This photograph encapsulates not only the beauty and elegance of Edwardian fashion but also highlights the rich cultural heritage found within Cornish communities. It speaks volumes about how theater has always been a vital part of society - bringing people together to share stories that resonate across generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, we are reminded of our collective history and how it continues to shape our present-day experiences.
