Fairies In Cabs: Comic And Curious Clippings From The Legendary Theatrical Paper the Era, 1890-1900 [Paperback]

A compilation of amusing, odd and sometimes downright bizarre extracts from Britain's leading theatrical newspaper. Oddball music hall acts, Sabbatarian landladies, squalid dressing-rooms, the dangers of public transport, the vexed question of why women insisted on wearing hats the size of cartwheels at the theatre - it's all in Fairies in Cabs.
