Wolverhampton Theatre Royal – The Dream Girl – 1920

About this The Dream Girl theatre programme

An original programme for The Dream Girl at the Theatre Royal, Wolverhampton, for the week of 20 September 1920. The cast includes Maisie Terriss, Randolph Sutton, Harold Baker, Zara Risson and Jim Morrison. It comes with a newspaper cutting about the theatre, which was affectionately known locally as ‘The Blood Tub’. An early 1920s programme with a future music hall star in the cast, this is a characterful example of old theatre programmes from the Midlands.
