Actors performing French theatre, Cottbus prisoner of war camp, c. 1910s

Four performers in period costume pose on a painted stage set with paneled walls, a white bench and chairs. A woman in a long dress gestures at left, a man in a tailcoat raises an arm behind, while a figure in a large hat and striped skirt leans toward a seated man in a dark suit.
