EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we catch a glimpse of the legendary Vivien Leigh dressed in exquisite period costume as she attends a rehearsal at Her Majesty's Theatre, Haymarket. The occasion is none other than a charity performance before the esteemed Queen Mother, celebrating the jubilee of R. A. D. A for its rebuilding fund. Leigh takes on the role of Lady Tezal in an extract from Sheridan's renowned play "School for Scandal". The year is 1954, and it marks an exciting first-time collaboration between Leigh and Alec Guinness on stage. As they prepare to grace the spotlight together, their combined talent promises to create theatrical magic that will leave audiences spellbound. Leigh radiates elegance and poise in her ensemble, adorned with a feather hat that adds a touch of glamour to her appearance. Clutching onto a fur muff, she exudes both warmth and sophistication as she immerses herself into character. This photograph not only captures an iconic moment in British entertainment history but also transports us back to London's vibrant theater scene during the 1950s. It serves as a testament to Leigh's remarkable acting prowess and her contribution to the world of performing arts. Preserved by Eric Harlow through Memory Lane Prints, this image allows us to relive an era where period dramas thrived on stages across the United Kingdom – reminding us of the timeless allure that theater brings into our lives.
