    Two very scarce advertisements for Shakespeare plays performed at the Lyceum.

    The first of these programmes is for the Lyceum's 1875 production of 'Macbeth', starring Sir Henry Irving alongside American actress Kate Josephine Bateman Crowe, and directed by Irving himself.

    The second programme is for the Lyceum's 1877 production of 'Richard III', with Irving performing as the Duke of Glo'ster, and with Miss Bateman as Queen Margaret. This production was also directed by Irving.

    With contemporary press reviews for each production to the rear.
