Read Narrative
The Millom Gazette, Friday 30 June 1916, advertised in the week commencing 3 July the ‘expensive engagement of Cissie Langley & Company in a series of sketches. Monday & Tuesday: Nurse Cavell Martyr. Wednesday & Thursday: Only A dream. Friday & Saturday: For King And Country’. Also: ‘The sketches produced by Miss Cissie Langley and her company at the Recreation Hall this week have met with great receptions. “Nurse Cavell, Martyr,” was a deeply pathetic piece, the majority of the large audiences being moved to tears by the clever portrayal of how this noble woman met her death in the cause of her country. “Only a Dream,” a delightful short play, was greatly enjoyed on Wednesday and Thursday evening, whilst to-night and tomorrow (Friday and Saturday) Miss Langley and her company will present the sketch entitled “For King and Country”‘. Millom Gazette, Friday 7 July 1916.
