Description
Old Theatres in the Potteries by William A. Neale The Staffordshire Potteries have a rich history of theatres, with their first appearance dating back to travelling showmen and mobile stages. Over time, permanent venues emerged, including the Royal Pottery Theatre, which opened in 1852. This book chronicles the development and decline of these theatre buildings, as well as concert halls and circus arenas such as the Theatre Royal in Hanley, the Hippodrome in Stoke, and the Empire Theatre in Longton. The book features a range of photographs, maps, and illustrations, along with vintage programmes and posters. These visual elements provide a unique insight into the history of theatres in the Potteries. With its focus on accurate chronology and attention to detail, Old Theatres in the Potteries is a valuable resource for anyone interested in local history or the development of entertainment venues.
