Anyone know of any sites or societies that contain details of past Theatres in Manchester and Salford mainly, 1945/46 .

Manchester & Lancashire FHS have lots of great local history books. I know they have one about dance bands, and cinemas - they may do one on theatres too...

Have you seen The Stage Archive?   I've not used it yet so not sure how much use it will be but might be worth a look
