Keith Fawkes and Richard Norman share a lifelong interest in the history of music hall and variety entertainment and they have come together to produce illustrated talks on the subject. This talk will include examples of music hall and variety entertainment captured on film.

Keith is chairman of Hornsey Historical Society. For many years he was involved with the management of the world famous Players’ Theatre in Villiers Street, Charing Cross that presented traditional Victorian Music Hall.

Richard’s interest is the study of music hall and theatres buildings and their architecture and he is involved with the Frank Matcham Society. 

Doors open at 7.30pm for the sale of refreshments and publications and close at 8pm. The main doors have to be closed at that time for security reasons, so anyone arriving after then will be unable to gain access.

A donation of £2 is requested from non-members.
