London St George's Hall – A Wonderful Woman – 1885 – Amateur

An original programme for an amateur performance of A Wonderful Woman and supporting pieces at St George’s Hall, Langham Place, London, on 2 July 1885.

The cast included Chas Major, Edgar Carpenter, Ethel Zimmerman, Cooper Keates, G Barlow and H Colley Salter. Amateur dramatic clubs were thriving in Victorian London and often hired fashionable West End halls for their performances.

Programmes for Victorian amateur productions are scarce survivals and an appealing strand of old theatre programmes.
