New book celebrates 100 years of Hippodrome
A new book from Redcliffe Press celebrates the centenary of the Bristol Hippodrome.
Stage Door is written by longstanding Evening Post theatre critic Gerry Parker and former Western Daily Press journalist John Hudson.
“The Bristol Hippodrome is a much-loved theatre and an iconic landmark in the city of Bristol,” says Hippodrome press officer Sarah Milne.
“Over the years, audiences have come in their thousands to this historic venue to be entertained by all manner of theatrical performances from music hall and twice-nightly variety in the early years, to comedians, opera, ballet and musicals.
“The Hippodrome stage has played host to possibly every genre of live entertainment there is.
“After some time in the making, we are over the moon that our new book on the history of this fantastic theatre has now been published.”
