Littlehampton Theatre Royal The Blue Goose – Theatre Flyer Leaflet 1951
A single sheet theatre flyer leaflet, 5.5 x 8.5 inches, for The Blue Goose at the Littlehampton Theatre Royal, dated 29 October 1951.
The comedy was presented by the Elizabeth Barrat Repertory Company, billed as a West End comedy, as many seaside repertory companies did to attract holidaymakers and locals alike.
Handbills from small-town repertory are scarce today, making this an appealing piece of theatre memorabilia from 1950s Sussex.
