About This Item

[Yorkshire]: [s.n.], [1846]. Single leaf broadside. Several old horizontal and vertical folds, manuscript date of April, 1846 to head. Evidence of earlier mounting to verso. An attractive playbill for private theatricals at the Elizabethan country house of Burton Constable, Yorkshire. The theatre was created in the 1840s from the first-floor rooms in the south end of the house. Thomas Hugh Clifford-Constable inherited Burton Constable in 1823; his wife Lady Marianne Clifford-Constable appears as the Duchess de Chartres in J. R. Planche's 'Follies of a Night', along with his son Frederick Talbot Constable (then eighteen). They were joined by Frederick's cousins, the children of Thomas' eldest sister Mary, who had married her cousin Charles Chichester of Caverleigh Court, Devon. Another performer was Edward Samuel Evans Hartopp whose father had established a private playhouse at Little Dalby Hall in Leicestershire. He was a keen amateur actor and an early member of the Canterbury Old Stagers. . Dimensions 190 x 250 mm.
