The Francis Bacon Opera

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

As a result of my attempt at cleanup of Stephen Crowe (composer) where I discovered a fair amount of bad faith autobiography, I looked into this article, and realized there also wasn't much of anything here. I can't find any evidence of the Hilton Edwards Award (either they plays award, or the award itself). I don't think that Exeunt Magazine,[1] This is Tomorrow,[2] What's on Stage[3] and Opera Magazine establish notability. The Independent is a passing mention. Very little WP:RS.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * keep. Per the other AfD, the HE Award is real and was given. This AfD ignores the Scotsman review "a tiresomely patience-testing show". Taking the basket of other reviews & mentions - those you note, and others such as Broadway Baby I conclude there's sufficient notability to retain this. --Tagishsimon (talk) 04:24, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
