The Hippodrome Theatre Wigan

My Dad took me to see 'Jane Eyre' when I wasn't very old,it scared me to death although I don't remember why..my Mam choked my poor Dad off for taking me...then in my teens I would stand at the stage door with a couple of friends to get all the autographs of the stars that went on stage there,I'd love to have kept that little book,probably worth a bit now.

I remember my Mum and Dad taking me to see Two Ton Tessie O’Shea there in he early fifties, this would be in the dying days of music hall.
God I’m an old git!!!!!!! LOL
