Product Information
The Staffordshire Potteries have a long association with theatres. Their first appearance in the area was with the travelling showmen and their mobile stages until the first permanent venue, the Royal Pottery Theatre, was opened in 1852. This book hopes to accurately chronicle the development and demise of theatre buildings in the area, along with some of the concert halls and permanent circus arenas. These include the Theatre Royal in Hanley, the Hippodrome in Stoke and the Empire Theatre in Longton, along with many others. Relevant photographs, maps and illustrations, along with vintage programmes and posters are printed throughout.Product Identifiers
