Printed Ephemera — 1845-1847
Playbill
Double column playbill for the Standard Theatre, Shoreditch, announcing their Christmas pantomime production of 'Oranges & Lemons'. Includes a cast and scene list. The playbill is from the time when Mr John Douglass was the theatre's sole manager, which narrows the date given that the actor-manager R Honner co-managed the theatre with Douglass from 1847. Douglass was a competitive theatre manager, who considered the Standard a rival to more celebrated West End theatres. The playbill has been damaged to its printer is unknown.
