London Marylebone Theatre – Four Knaves – 1877

An original Victorian programme for Four Knaves and Old London at the Marylebone Theatre, London, dated 28 February 1877.

The cast includes Walter Roberts, Walter Holland, Mr George Skinner, Miss E Henrique, Mr E Douglas and Agnes Warden, regulars of the Marylebone company.

The programme has been laid down onto a sheet of paper, attached by the rear cover only, so it still opens. A characterful double bill from a working Victorian playhouse, and a rewarding piece of theatre memorabilia.
