Warwickshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Holloway Travelling Theatre Company.
« on: Friday 10 February 12 16:46 GMT (UK)  »
Hello. We are currently researching material for a book on the history of theatre in Ashton-under-Lyne. We have noticed the occasional visit by Holloway's Travelling Theatre to the town. Indeed, in October 1849 one Jame Holloway was summons with a charge of performing part of a stage play without a license at his booth [portable theatre] in Ashton. Does any of the band of Holloway’s out there have any details of their travelling Theatre at this time (1849)? Any photograph of the said James Holloway or his travelling theatre from this period would be appreciated. Obviously our interest is only from this said time period but any help would be much appreciated
