EDITORS COMMENTS
John Tresahar, a versatile actor and playwright of the late Victorian era, is captured in this intriguing photograph taken during the 1890s, as he prepared for a role in the production of 'A Trip to Chinatown.' Dressed in full oriental costume, Tresahar sits cross-legged on a stage prop, holding a parasol and donning a monocle and long moustache. The setting suggests an exotic and far-off land, as the footlights illuminate the scene and create an air of mystery and intrigue. Tresahar was a favorite among theatre-goers for his ability to fully embody each character he portrayed. In 'A Trip to Chinatown,' he took on the challenging role of a Chinese man, demonstrating his exceptional talent for mastering accents and physicality. The production was a hit, and Tresahar's portrayal was praised for its authenticity and depth. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of late 19th-century theatre, where actors like Tresahar brought stories to life through their captivating performances. The image also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of cross-cultural exploration and the power of storytelling to transport audiences to new and exciting worlds.
