Read Narrative
‘Kennington Theatre has always been a source of joy to playgoers. The building itself is handsome and convenient and first class plays and first class companies to interpret them are the rule. Thus this week finds “The Man who Stayed at Home” hospitably housed and welcomed’ (Norwood News, 20 August 1915). ‘Last week that capital play, The Man Who Stayed at Home, filled the bill [at the Kennington Theatre], played by a strong company, headed by Mr. George Tully' (The Tatler, 25 August 1915). George Tully was a member of he Vedrenne and Eadie company.

3 Jun 1918 A Colour Scheme Unknown
26 Aug 1918 Real Sports Professional
Read Narrative
‘Arthur Rosbery’s [sic] production of “Real Sports” has occupied the boards of Kennington Theatre during the past week. It is a happy conglomeration of drama, and musical comedy of a decidedly revusical nature, which has been acclaimed by the audience with great enthusiasm. The numbers, if taken just a little slow and perhaps just a trifle lengthy, are pleasing, and Ernest Vousden is to be complimented upon his melodious music. Hetty Gale makes a spirited Kitty, and Dave O’Toole and Will Priestley supply some excellent comedy. The racing scenes are full of animation, the dialogue abounds in patriotism, and "Real Sports,” which is well produced, is bound to enjoy a “long run”‘. The People, 1 September 1918.
