I've looked up a few stage actresses over the years.



What's the name of the actress you are referring to coonsanders?

If they've done any work for the Royal Shakespeare Company there is the RSC Archives:-

Judging from newspaper listings she was a singer/dancer more than an actress with quite a few radio credits to her name and a steam television appearances back in 1933.

There's a very good book called London Stage a Calendar of Plays and Players various volumes from 1890's-1959 by J.P. Wearing published by Scarecrow Press Metuche, N.J. & London 1982. I would think a large reference library should have copies.
