Manchester Prince’s Theatre – The Cousin From Nowhere – 1923

About this The Cousin From Nowhere theatre programme

An original theatre programme for The Cousin From Nowhere at the Prince’s Theatre, Manchester, dated 13 August 1923, with principal cast including Madie Andrews and Mabelle George. The show was the English version of Eduard Künneke’s German operetta Der Vetter aus Dingsda, a light-hearted tale of a mysterious stranger claiming to be a long-lost cousin. A charming programme from one of Manchester’s lost theatres, and a welcome addition to any collection of old theatre programmes.
