24 December 1923
Description
Full programme for Robinson Crusoe, the Theatre Royal Pantomime for 1923.
What's the story?
Full 12 page programme for Howard & Wyndham’s production of Robinson Crusoe at the Theatre Royal.
Due to its subject matter, the cast of characters and the scene synopsis portrays a less than sympathetic approach to the depiction of the native characters.
However, from looking at this programme one is immediately overwhelmed by the sheer number of advertisements in it. The actual show details are not exactly hidden, but are simply worked around the advertising.
Here you can see everything Nottingham has to offer on its high street, from surgical appliances to oyster saloons, from wireless accessories to motor cars.
