I think that B. Russell was Bert Russell, a friend of my father’s. He was born in 1914 and married Dorothy Willer. Her father was Horace Willer, projectionist at the cinema in the 50s and 60s – when the film broke down on occasion we used to shout “put another penny in it Horace”.

At a rough guess dated around the late 1920’s early 1930’s. “The Lord Marshall” & “Queen to King Richard” were played by a gentleman who still resides in this town and who told me that taking part in this school Reportory Company set him on the Acting & Directing path which he subsequently followed, in Films & TV, both here and abroad.
