Theatre by torchlight

theatre stage pulled down

When editing RED, I had to leave out many episodes to keep the book to 600 pages. One of those episodes took place on the day Lesley, who was administrator of Sydney’s New Theatre in 1943, arrived to find the stage destroyed and the lighting switchboard removed. This was part of a dispute with the theatre’s landlord. More HERE.
