The Theatres Trust Guide to British Theatres 1750-1950 cover

This descriptive gazetter looks, town by town, at all surviving theatres built between 1750 and 1950. It makes assesments of their quality, architecturally and theatrically and also assesses the potential of reopening some disused theatres. In addition to its critical assessment of more than 650 theatres, the guide contains details of hundreds of lost theatres and biographical notes on the principal theatre architects."

'This is a fascinating book...an important historical guide, this will also be useful for those looking at touring small-scale shows' Lighting & Sound International (March 2010)
