A theatre programme for The Best People, performed by The County Players at the Borough Hall, Stafford, at Easter 1933. The cast included Cave Rogers, Nellie Hull, Charles Hall and Austin James.
The Best People is a comedy by David Gray and Avery Hopwood, poking fun at a wealthy family horrified by their children’s choice of sweethearts.
Local repertory and amateur company programmes like this record a lively part of interwar theatre life, and are a fine addition to a collection of old theatre programmes.
