Theatre Royal - Carlton - New Prince of Wales Theatre Greenwich
Carlton Theatre, London, Greenwich, built by Sefton Parry in 1864 to replace the derelict Theatre Royal, Deptford. It was well built and compact, but attained no special eminence. It fell into disuse when the Broadway Theatre, Deptford, was built in 1897. The Oxford Companion To Theatre (Second edition) The poster right for Arthur lloyd at the Prince of Wales Theatre is from a large collection of original Lloyd Posters collected since the mid 1800s by members of the family and found recently after being lost for 50 years. To see all these posters click the Poster Index here... The New Prince of Wales Theatre, Greenwich, is just one of the names borne by the theatre which was demolished in 1937 to make way for a new Town Hall. The name of the lessee, W Morton, relates it to Morton's Model Theatre. Other names were Carlton, Theatre Royal, and New Greenwich Theatre. In 1866 Sefton Parry was proprietor and manager of the theatre. W.J.
Hurlstone was Acting Manager, C. Stanton was Stage Manager, and G. Richardson
was Musical Director. |
