Marriage ended by Kelly’s death on 17 April 1885. • Married James Carew, actor 22 March 1907 in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, USA. Unofficially separated 1909. • Died 21 July 1928 Smallhythe Place. Funeral service at Smallhythe church. Cremation at Golders Green Crematorium, London. Ashes placed in St Paul’s Covent Garden (the actors’ church). Urn on display on south wall (east end). A brief marital history Ellen Terry married three times and, between husbands one and two, eloped with the man who Ellen Terry’s first marriage was to the artist G F Watts. She was a week shy of 17 years old, young and exuberant, and he was a very neurotic and elderly 46. They were totally mismatched. Within a year he had sent her back to her family but would not divorce her. When she was 21, Ellen Terry eloped with the widower Edward Godwin and, as a consequence, was estranged from her family. Ellen said he was the only man she really loved. They had two illegitimate children, Edith and Edward. The relationship foundered after 6 or 7 years when they were overcome by financial problems resulting from over- expenditure on the house that Godwin had designed and built for them in Harpenden. -
The 007Th Minute Ebook Edition
“What a load of crap. Next time, mate, keep your drug tripping private.” JACQUES A person on Facebook. STEWART “What utter drivel” Another person on Facebook. “I may be in the minority here, but I find these editorial pieces to be completely unreadable garbage.” Guess where that one came from. “No, you’re not. Honestly, I think of this the same Bond thinks of his obituary by M.” Chap above’s made a chum. This might be what Facebook is for. That’s rather lovely. Isn’t the internet super? “I don’t get it either and I don’t have the guts to say it because I fear their rhetoric or they’d might just ignore me. After reading one of these I feel like I’ve walked in on a Specter round table meeting of which I do not belong. I suppose I’m less a Bond fan because I haven’t read all the novels. I just figured these were for the fans who’ve read all the novels including the continuation ones, fan’s of literary Bond instead of the films. They leave me wondering if I can even read or if I even have a grasp of the language itself.” No comment. This ebook is not for sale but only available as a free download at Commanderbond.net.

“Free Theatre”: Edith Craig's Pioneer Players 1911
Formations, Institutions and The “Free Theatre”: Edith Craig’s Pioneer Players 1911- 25 In ‘Social Environment and Theatrical Environment: The Case of English Naturalism’ (1977), Raymond Williams provided valuable insights into the vibrant and volatile period in theatre when ideas of freedom and oppression were realized and contested in the dramatic form of naturalism. He noted that the naturalist play emphasised ‘the stage as an enclosed room’ and environment itself acted as an agent in constructing character.1 Some naturalist drama sought to open up these claustrophobic domestic spaces and indicate pathways to social change. However, any depiction of a domestic space or ‘enclosed room’ in this period—in plays, short stories, novels and the visual art of the women’s suffrage political campaigns—became inevitably implicated in separate spheres ideology.2 Although Williams referred to the ‘breakaway independent theatres’ and the Vedrenne-Barker season of plays 1904-07, he did not mention the involvement of female performers, authors or directors in the promotion of the independent theatres or how they drew on that experience during the political movement for women’s enfranchisement. The ‘enclosed room’ of the naturalist play was reconceptualized by a new generation of political activists of both sexes who envisaged equality symbolized by citizenship and brought about by legislative change. The women’s suffrage movement was very visibly and successfully supported by the production of politically engaged drama. This is marked by a specific theatrical production, Elizabeth Robins’ Votes for Women (1907) and the founding of the specialist institutions, the Actresses’ Franchise League (AFL, 1908) and the Pioneer Players theatre society (1911). -

Left to right, Peter Hawksworth, Robert Parker, Guest of Honour Gillian Lynne, Jessica Ward, Roy Shields; photo: Phil Hitchman On a personal note, this summer also saw my wedding to my long-term partner James Wheeler, hence the change of my name from Ward to work and energies of all staff and students in the creation of these.

Photography Lynette Wills 4 THE AUSTRALIAN BALLET 2019 SEASON NOTE FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR Giselle has a special place in The Australian Ballet’s history, and has been a constant in our repertoire since the company’s earliest years. The superstars Margot Fonteyn and Rudolf Nureyev danced it with us in 1964, in a production based on the Borovansky Ballet’s. Our founding artistic director, Peggy van Praagh, created her production in 1965; it premiered in Birmingham on the company’s first international tour, and won a Grand Prix for the best production staged in Paris that year. It went on to become one of the most frequently performed ballets in our repertoire. Peggy’s production came to a tragic end when the scenery was consumed by fire on our 1985 regional tour. The artistic director at the time, Maina Gielgud, created her own production a year later. -

At the newspaper's height, circulation was approximatly 18,000 copies. The original editorial collective included Denis Lemon (editor), Martin Corbett - who later was an active member of ACT UP, David Seligman, a founder member of the London Gay Switchboard collective, Ian Dunn of the Scottish Minorities Group, Glenys Parry (national chair of CHE), Suki J. Pitcher, and Doug Pollard, who later went on to launch the weekly gay newspaper, Gay Week (affectionately known as Gweek). Amongst Gay News' early "Special Friends" were Graham Chapman of Monty Python's Flying Circus, his partner David Sherlock, and Antony Grey, secretary of the UK Homosexual Law Reform Society from 1962 to 1970. Gay News was the response to a nationwide demand by lesbians and gay men for news of the burgeoning liberation movement. The paper played a pivotal role in the struggle for gay rights in the 1970s in the UK. It was described by Alison Hennegan (who joined the newspaper as Assistant Features Editor and Literary Editor in June 1977) as the movement's "debating chamber". -
Notes and References
Notes and References CHAPTER 1 To provide an intellectual and cultural framework for examining Carol Reed's films, a history of the British cinema from its origins through to the Second World War is offered in this chapter. Although Reed began directing in 1935, 1939 seemed a tidier, more logical cut-off point for the survey. All the information in the chapter is synthesized from several excellent works on the subject: Roy Armes's A Critical History of the British Cinema, Ernest Betts' The Film Business, Ivan Butler's Cinema in Britain, Denis Gifford's British Film Catalogue, Rachel Low's History of the British Film, and George Perry's The Great British Picture Show.
