London Criterion Theatre – His Excellency The Governor – 1900

An original theatre programme for His Excellency The Governor at the Criterion Theatre, London, dated 8 March 1900, with principal cast including Arthur Bourchier and Fanny Coleman.

Captain Robert Marshall’s light comedy pokes fun at officialdom in a far-flung British colony, a popular theme at the height of the Empire.

A turn-of-the-century programme with a leading actor-manager of the day, and a fine addition to any collection of old theatre programmes.
