Begins with the debatable assertion: ‘Many men and women have given great gifts to our Nation - inventions discoveries territory and creations of literature and art - but the greatest of all is the glorious inheritance bequeathed to humanity by William Shakespeare.’ Continues in the same pretentious vein before describing the ‘reproach that the Library Sculpture and Art Gallery Reading Room and Lecture Hall at Stratford-upon-Avon is unable to complete its catalogue maintain a librarian or fully develop its educational facilities owing to lack of funds. / The entire Press of the English-speaking world the leaders of Politics Art Drama Literature and Society the Lord Mayor of London and the Mayors of the principal cities and towns warmly endorse the appeal of the Governors of the Memorial for funds to enable the intentions of the Founders to be fully realised. / To this end November 8th. is to be observed as National Shakespeare Day. Each district city and town has been asked to raise its quota. There will be no street collections prize schemes or ballots but just this appeal to those who value the “Common Heritage†to send a subscription be it large or small one shilling or hundreds of shillings one pound or hundreds of pounds to the Shakespeare Memorial Endowment Fund.’ Ends with reference to ‘our greatest sic National Bard’.

Irving Wardle [John Irving Wardle] (born 1929), theatre critic and champion of Harold Pinter [Gerald Wynne-Rushton (1894-), Cath
Irving Wardle theatre critic. Autograph Letter Signed to Gerald Wynne-Rushton giving advice on offering a play with reference to a letter he has received from Emyr Humphreys producer of BBC TV production of Saunders Lewis’s ‘Siwan’.
16 March no year but between 1960 and 1963; on letterhead of the Observer London. Wardle worked as Kenneth Tynan’s deputy on the Observer between 1959 and 1963. Wynne-Rushton had published a play titled ‘The Gull’s Way’ in 1930 and a book on the papacy for Catholic publishers Burns Oates and Washburne two years later. 2pp 4to. In fair condition folded three times with wear and loss along one fold line of the second leaf resulting in loss of a few words of text. Signed ‘Irving Wardle’ and addressed to ‘Dear Mr. Rushton’ identified as G. W. Wynne-Rushton by associated correspondence. He does not feel that he can be of much help to Wynne-Rushton ‘in suggesting possible markets’ for his work. Regarding the 1960 BBC TV production of Saunders Lewis’s ‘Siwan’ he writes: ‘It so happened that by the same post that brought your letter I received a note from Emyr Humphreys the producer of SIWAN in which he said how much difficulty he had encountered in getting the BBC to agree to a television production of a play so remote from the current idioms: had it not been an appropriate choice for St. David’s Day the work might not have been seen at all.’ He suggests Wynne-Rushton try J. Roose-Evans manager of the Hampstead Theatre Club which staged the play of ‘Siwan’ and ‘might be interested in other historical pieces . And of course you can’t lose anything by sending scripts in to the script department of the BBC and independent networks in the normal way. And I wouldn’t ignore radio - they’re also hard up for material and much less nervous about adverse ratings and for that reason freer in their choice of material even when it doesn’t reflect what happens to be in fashion’. 16 March [no year, but between 1960 and 1963]; on letterhead of the Observer, London. unknown

The menu is headed: ‘THE DICKENS FELLOWSHIP / 130th Anniversary of the / Birthday of Charles Dickens / Chairman: WALTER DEXTER Vice-President / Speakers: HUMPHREY HOUSE JAMES AGATE’.

London: Printed by J. W. Peel 1858. Single leaf broadside. numerous old horizontal and vertical folds. A trifle creased and browned. An apparently unrecorded playbill advertising performances at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane of William Leman Rede's 1803-1847 two-act farce His First Champagne and Edward L. Blanchard's 1820-1889 comic pantomime Little Jack Horner or Harlequin A. B. C. and the Enchanted Regions of Nursery Rhymes! The bill rather verbosely described the pantomime as 'Allegorical Beautiful Comical Diverting Educational Fanciful Gorgeous Hyperbolical Intellectual Jovial Keen Laughable Merry Novel Original Peculiar Quizzical Romantic Splendid Transcendent Unobjectionable Volatile Waggish Extravagant Youthful and Zigzaggy'. In the pantomime an entreaty to literacy and knowledge Intelligence sends Proverb to help Jack Horner with his studies Jack fends off Ignorance with the Sword of Perseverance and sent to a 'Fairy Aquarium' with a coral palace to see what can be achieved by Imagination. The spectacular visual scenery provided by William Beverley in particular the 'Fairy Aquarium' was universally praised; indeed even the The Times who dismissed Blanchard's efforts stating that 'People do not expect to be edified and instructed at a pantomime' were effusive in their praise: 'As its wonders gradually revealed themselves and the circumambient air no less than terra firma became peopled with floating nymphs and soaring fairies the applause was vociferous and continuous and a summons first for Mr E. T. Smith the manager and next for Mr Beverley the artist presented the climax of excitement'. . Dimensions 500 x 510 mm. Printed by J. W. Peel unknown

[Private Theatre Tickets]
Little Dalby Hall Theatre Tickets
Melton Mowbray: No Publisher Three tickets for various productions at Dalby Theatre: 1. 'Macbeth' with 'High Life Below Stairs' approximately 55mm x 76mm in size dated 21st July with an image of a woman holding a dagger and a chalice; 2. 'The Wonder' with 'Atheling Castle' approximately 54mm x 77mm in size dated July 14th with an image of a dancing woman holding a mask; and 3. 'The Castle Spectre' with a farce called 'Transformed or No' approximately 65mm x 57mm in size dated July 9th with a coloured image of a partially clothed woman in the clouds holding a banner in which the plays and dates are inscribed n.d. but probably very late eighteenth century or very early nineteenth century. All three slightly trimmed each with play titles and date to front in ink and with 'Admission Ticket Not Transferable' to reverse lightly browned 'Castle Spectre' with soiling to top left hand corner but generally clean. Dalby theatre was the private playhouse of Edward Hartropp 1758-1808 at Little Dalby Hall Leicestershire it was demolished in 1945. 'High Life Below Stairs' was a comedy by James Townley; 'The Wonder' was a play by Susanna Centlivre set in Lisbon; 'Atheling Castle' was possibly based on the gothic novel by Ann Radcliffe 'The Castles of Athlin and Dunbayne' first published in 1789; 'The Castle Spectre' was by Matthew Gregory Lewis Monk Lewis first performed in 1797; and 'Transformed or No' has eluded our searches. The BM has all three of these tickets with others pasted on to a sheet of paper C2. 1535-1543 Yale has both 'Macbeth' with the same image used for another play 'Isabella' with 'Lover's Quarrels' and 'Castle Spectre' but not as far as we can tell 'The Wonder'. First Edition. Unbound. Good. Various. Ephemera. No Publisher Paperback
