"Hello everyone, welcome back to another electrifying episode of the HAVAGO show. Today, we're delving into the lesser-known pages of history, unearthing an almost forgotten gem of the entertainment world: Pyrodrama. Back in 1896, when moving pictures were still in their infancy, pyrodrama held spectators spellbound with its dramatic fusion of fire and theatre.Our episode today revolves around the fascinating tale of James Pain, a scion of a family steeped in pyrotechnics. This master craftsman set the world alight, quite literally, with his grand pyrodramatic spectacles. As a treat, we've brought to life one of Pain's most awe-inspiring performances, 'The Last Days of Pompeii.'Our exploration isn't merely academic.
