Dickens transforms school room to theatre in Tavistock House
The novelist, Charles Dickens pictured reading from one of his scripts in the large schoolroom at his home in Tavistock Square, London. Dickens and his family lived in Travistock Square, in Tavistock House, where he converted the former school room, into a theatre. Here, Dickens wrote Bleak House, Hard Times, Little Dorrit and A Tale of Two Cities, and later began staging amateur theatricals in the same room. The stage and scenery were built and painted by Clarkson Stanfield R. A. and W. Telbin. Date: 1851-1860
