WITH ILLUSTR^TIOD^S LIVERPOOL EDWARD HOWELL ,^o8 PREFACE It is not a whit surprising that although the annals of most of the other provincial theatres of importance have long been published, no one hitherto has written any record of the Liverpool stage. The difficulties of the task lie in the fact that data are at once too sparse and too abundant. Owing to the incompleteness of the collection of playbills in the I,iver- pool Free Library, there are many gaps in the story of the I/iverpool Theatres which it is weU-nigh impossible to fill- This is all the more regrettable as the remoter period in the annals of our local drama is much more individual and char- acteristic than the record of the last half century.
