Talk:Independent Theatre

Querying some data
My father worked as stage manager, director and actor at the Independent from around 1946 to 1950.

He would be interested in adding to, correcting information in this article.

For example he played the lead in Volpone which ran for 6 months - which does not appear here.

There is also no mention of The Invisible Circus (play)

List of productions
It might be worth separating professional full productions from play readings. What source material was used to create the existing list of productions? Did that come from Doris's diary? What other resources are available? Camerojo (talk) 22:01, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
 * The list of productions came from searching newspaper reviews and advertisements using Trove Doug butler (talk) 15:15, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
