Victoria Regina (play)
''Victoria Regina'' is a 1934 play by Laurence Housman about Queen Victoria, staged privately in London in 1935, produced on Broadway in 1935, and given its British public premiere in 1937. Plot Background There was a ban on personations of Victoria in public theatres in Britain, and the play was first given at the Gate Theatre, London in May 1935. The Gate, being a theatre club, was technically private and therefore exempt from the prohibition. In 1936 Edward VIII had the ban revoked, and public performances of the play were possible. The first was in 1937 at the Lyric Theatre, London, where Pamela Stanley repeated her performance in the title role seen at the Gate two years earlier. The play ran at the Lyric for 337 performances. 1937 cast * Lord Conyngham – Allan Aynesworth *Archbishop of Canterbury – Douglas Jefferies *Duchess of Kent – Irma Cioba * Victoria – Pamela Stanley *Prince Albert – Carl Esmond * Prince Ernest – Albert Lieven *Mr Anson – John Garsid ...
