Chesterfield Hippodrome

(1/2) > >>

Pastitman:
Many  well  known  stars  appeared  at  the  Hippodrome  over  the  years  but  who  or  what  act  was  the  last  to  appear  before  its  closure?  Any  thoughts, 

Old Cruser:
Some Hustle 1923 is the last one I can find up to now pastitman but I will scroll through the links where I found the Crown hotel info and see if there is anything in there

Kent:
Thought I'd add this to the Thread

Pastitman:
Thanks  for  the  info  and  picture, what  memories.  My  grandfather  used  to  work  the  stage  spotlights  in  the  1920s  and  met  many  stars  of  the  time. I  do  just  recall  seeing  Norman  Evans  and  others  there  around  1949 - 54  and  I  was  told  that  I  did  see  Laurel  and  Hardy  but  sadly  that  does  evade  me.

Old Cruser:
I thought I had 'cracked it' when I found the Derbyshire Times archives  - then they wanted 'money' to get into them.
Maybe the Chesterfield Library archives would shed some light on who played last there?
