EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures English actress and singer, Amy Augarde, in the role of Mlle Lange in the comic opera "La Fille de Madame Angot" during the 1890s. Dressed in an elegant and intricately detailed costume, Augarde embodies the character with poise and charm. The late Victorian era setting of the production is reflected in the opulent stage design and the ornate costumes worn by the cast. Mlle Lange is a pivotal character in "La Fille de Madame Angot," a French comic opera that tells the story of a young woman who disguises herself as a man to secure a job as a page in the household of Madame Angot. The opera, which premiered in Paris in 1872, was a popular success and was frequently revived in the following decades. Amy Augarde's portrayal of Mlle Lange showcases her versatility as a performer, as she navigates the complexities of the character's deception and eventual revelation. Her expressive facial features and engaging stage presence are on full display in this photograph, making it a fascinating glimpse into the world of late Victorian theatre. The intricate details of Augarde's costume, with its ruffled collar, voluminous skirt, and ornate hat, are a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship that went into producing a high-quality theatrical production during this era. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the rich history of comic opera, a genre that continues to captivate audiences with its blend of music, comedy, and drama.
