The Theatre Museum
« on: Monday 17 July 06 17:17 BST (UK) »
I come from a theatrical family and it has been suggested that I might want to do research at the Theatre Museum in London. I however am in Scotland and unlikely to do any research myself.

Has anyone been there to do research? Has anyone paida  researcher to do work for them there? What have been your experiences?
 For those who are interested the address is

The Theatre Museum
1e Tavistock Street
London
WC2E 7PR

Many thanks

Well I emailed them yesterday evening and today I got a reply saying that they would look through their records and see what they could come up with for me.

Well recommended

Their website says that they are always busy when it comes to research so to book ahead. Maybe it will be worth a visit in the future.

Were you doing the touristy bit?
