Edinburgh Royal Lyceum Theatre – There's Always Juliet – 1943

A wartime theatre programme for There’s Always Juliet at the Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh, dated 26 April 1943. The cast included Jill Barrie, Kitty De Leigh and Wilson Barrett.

John Van Druten’s light romantic comedy follows an English girl who falls for a visiting American architect, a gentle charmer that was ideal wartime escapism.

Scottish repertory programmes from the war years are a fascinating record of theatre in difficult times, and a fine addition to any collection of old theatre programmes.
