EDITORS COMMENTS
Clara Webber, a beloved late Victorian actress, captivates the audience at Dublin's Gaiety Theatre in the enchanting role of Red Riding Hood. Dressed in a vibrant red hooded cloak and a flowing white blouse, Clara exudes an aura of innocence and charm. Her expressive face and captivating gaze draw the audience into the magical world of this classic fairy tale. The cross-dressing element of the character, which was common in Victorian theatre, adds an intriguing layer to Clara's portrayal. She dons a pair of tights and a high-waisted skirt, accentuating her feminine curves while maintaining the masculine essence of the woodsman. Her hat, adorned with a red ribbon, completes the look. The backdrop of the Gaiety Theatre's footlights and painted scenery adds to the enchanting atmosphere of the production. The theatre, a favorite entertainment destination in Dublin during the 1890s, was known for its lively and innovative productions. Clara Webber's performance as Red Riding Hood was a testament to her versatility as an actress and her ability to captivate audiences with her charisma and talent. This photograph, taken during the 1890s, serves as a reminder of the magic and wonder that once filled the stages of Dublin's beloved Gaiety Theatre.
