Warwickshire Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Holloway Travelling Theatre Company.

Message from DOS

I'm replying to Royal George's posting about the model theatre and other memorabilia.  I'd really love to be able to see this model and photograph it as it must be a really accurate representation of what the theatre was like inside.  I'd be happy to share information I have about my grandparents' theatre.  I live in North Wales so am not too far from Staffordshire which it where I presume this material is.
How exciting to be able to track all this down!

My grandparents also had a portable theatre, in South Wales.They would have known Henry Holloway.  Replying to FOAH's message I've been trying to track down the model of Holloway's theatre.  I have detailed descriptions  from my mother and her sisters of what the theatres were like.  I'd to see any pictures from when you had the exhibition in Atherstone.  Does anyone know if Geoff Holloway of Penkridge is still around, or know what happened to his collection of portable theatre items. I know that around 2004 he helped with an article about the tragic deaths of Henry Holloway's 3 little girls who were poisoned by carbon monoxide in the wagon they slept in in Newtown, mid-Wales.
