London St James's Theatre – Still Waters Run Deep – 1880
A rare Victorian theatre programme from the St James’s Theatre, London, dated 1880, for Still Waters Run Deep and Old Cronies, with Mr Hare, Mr Kendal, Mr Chevalier, Mr Denny, Miss Grahame and Mr Brandon.
Tom Taylor’s domestic comedy follows the seemingly meek John Mildmay, who quietly outwits a scheming adventurer. A lovely example of old theatre programmes from the Hare and Kendal years at the St James’s.
