London’s West End Actresses and the Origins of Celebrity Charity, 1880–1920 - Studies in Theatre History and Culture
Catherine Hindson
In the 1880s and 1890s, the stars of fin-de-siècle London’s fashionable stage culture transformed theatre’s connection with fundraising. Author Catherine Hindson reveals this history by examining the major types of charity events at the turn of the twentieth century, including fundraising matinees, charity bazaars and costume parties, theatrical tea and garden parties, and benefit performances.
