Theatres
THE ROYAL HIPPODROME
Professor John Pick talks about this landmark theatre and about the many famous artists who played on this stage. It was, he said, unique, being one of the only remaining theatres in the country by the renowned architect, C.J. Phipps, who not only built, but owned the theatre until his death.
Professor Pick and Mark Jones have written a book about the theatre entitled ‘Mr Phipps’ Theatre’ ISBN 1 904031 38 2.
