Photographs of actress in film and theatre version, Manuela

Photographs of young actress in a film and theatre production, Manuela'. Captioned, Children in Uniform: Two Manuelas'. With descriptions, Manuela and her friends wait for Fraulein von Bernberg's good-night, in the Duchess Theatre production, The English Schoolgirl Jessica Tandy, who takes the part of Manuela in the play at the Duchess Theatre, modelled herself very closely on the German actress's portrayal of a sensitive, imaginative schoolgirl in the grip of an iron system, but her acting is just as delicate and moving as if she herself had created the part, and The German Schoolgirl It was Hertha Thiele who first, in the German film, "Mdchen in Uniform, " gave Manuela life by the poignant beauty of her characterisation. Manuela, whether of the play or the film, remains in the memory as a living person, and for those who have seen both film and play, as one individuality rather than as the same part played by two different actresses
