EDITORS COMMENTS
De la Terre à la Lune" (From the Earth to the Moon) by Jules Verne was about to take the stage. Verne, the renowned French author, had penned this groundbreaking work as a novel in 1865, but now it was to be brought to life through music and theatre. The operetta, based on Verne's science fiction novel, told the story of a group of astronomers who built a projectile to travel to the moon. The production was a testament to the power of imagination and the limitless potential of human ingenuity. The cast, dressed in elaborate costumes, can be seen in this photograph, surrounded by props and set pieces that evoke the moon's surface and the inner workings of the projectile. The audience, enchanted by the spectacle, is not visible in this image, but their anticipation and excitement would have added to the electric atmosphere of the theatre. The operetta was an immense success, with critics and audiences alike praising the production for its innovative staging and captivating storytelling. This photograph serves as a reminder of a time when the impossible seemed within reach, and the power of art to transport us to new worlds was truly magical." This image is a historical record of a significant moment in the history of theatre and literature, and a testament to the enduring appeal of Jules Verne's work.
