Bristol Guild Of Players Drama Festival 1947

An original programme for the Bristol Guild Of Players Drama Festival 1947, with performers including John Bennett, Donald Adams, Eileen Merk and Hope Meradith.

Festivals like this were the high point of the year for local amateur companies, who competed before an adjudicator. A charming example of old theatre programmes from Bristol’s post-war community stage.
