The Lost Theatres of Sheffield by Bryen Hillerby
This entertaining volume takes a close look at Sheffield's theatre-land of years gone by. A world now all but disappeared, but which in its day brought quality entertainment to the City. Many great national and international stars played the theatres of Sheffield.These include Marie Lloyd, Sarah Bernhardt, Sir Henry Irving, Bela Lugosi (Dracula) and of course, the voluptuous Phyllis Dixie, first and perhaps the greatest, of the 'exotic dancers'! Bryen Hillerby has brought together the stories of seven of the great theatres of Sheffield, telling the stories of their rise and fall. Interwoven with tales of great shows and the stars who appeared in them. For the theatre buff, the social historian and the general reader, this book is a must.| SKU | Unavailable |
