The Bulletin  

CAPTAIN COOK'S OWN STORY: M. H. Ellis  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 77 No. 3977  

Wednesday, May 2, 1956  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

No. 296: the Homeland Series by the House of Seppelt.  

LONDON'S HAYMARKET THEATRE KNOWN THE WORLD OVER  

are no fewer than fifty theatres in central London alone, and they  

usually maintain tradition as to the type of production staged,  

rury Lane, Her Majesty’s, the Stoll, the Adelphi and the Coliseum present  

elaborate musicals. The Palace, Princes and Saville are chiefly devoted to  

musical comedy and operetta; the Comedy, Whitehall, Garrick and Criterion  

specialise in farces; the Old Vic is the chief home of Shakespeare; the Globe,  

Lyric. Apollo and Haymarket show straight plays and comedies.  

The Haymarket Theatre, few yards from Piccadilly Circus, and illustrated  

here, was built by Nash in 1821. This famous theatre, with its graceful  

colonnaded entrance, replaced an earlier theatre on the adjoining site,  

known as the Little Theatre. It was in this building that the novelist Henry  

Fielding produced satirical plays which caused the Government of the day to  

pass the Licensing Act of 1737, requiring all plays to be submitted to the  

Lord Chamberlain before their first public performances, and this Act is still  

in force today.  

In the 18th century famous manager of the Little Theatre was Samuel  

Foote, who, in the year 1749, engaged conjuror who claimed that he could  

enter quart bottle and while in that restricted position would sing song.  

ITiis was widely advertised and on the first night the theatre was filled with an  

expectant audience. However, when Foote announced from the stage that  

the conjuror was unable to appear but would enter pint and sing  

two songs therefrom on the following night, the audience rose in anger, and,  

led by the Duke of Cumberland with drawn sword, they stormed the stage  

and wrecked the theatre. During the engagement the Duke lost his sword,  

which was not surprising, since it had diamond hilt.  

The Haymarket Theatre now has reputation for polite comedy and is  

associated with such famous personalities as Cyril Maude, Sir Squire and  

Lady Bancroft and Beerbohm Tree, who, as Svengali in De Maurier’s Trilby,  

gave there one of his finest performances. One of the dressing-rooms of the  

theatre is reputed to be haunted by an actor-manager named Buckstone, who;  

it is said, still opens, shuts and slams doors and drawers.
