London Hippodrome Programme 1909 - Special Feature |
||
|
This month the feature is on a programme for the London Hippodrome for November 1909. The Theatre opened on January 15th 1900 as a Circus, convertible to a Variety theatre by the lowering of its huge hydraulically powered water tank into the basement and replacement with stalls seating. This Music Hall programme includes amazing details of the forthcoming Arena production called 'The Artic' including 70 Polar Bears and a recreation of the Aurora Borealis no less. There are also details of past spectacular productions. You won't believe what attractions the London Hippodrome used to attempt. The Programme is dated 25th November 1909.
