The Little Theatre as a soldiers clubhouse, WW1
A page from The Sphere, reporting on how the Little Theatre, in the Haymarket, London (now the Theatre Royal, Haymarket) temporarily converted to become a soldiers clubhouse during the First World War. Camp beds were arranged in the stalls, military ballads were performed between 5 and 7:30 each evening, a billiard room was below stage and Y.M.C.A. volunteers provided meals for visitors at a special cheap rate. The final picture shows the theatre foyer with soldiers buying things like postcards from the sundries stall. Date: 1916
