 Nigel Playfair - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nigel Playfair (1874-1934) was the great actor-manager of The Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith in the 1920s.
His innovative set and costume designs premiered at the Lyric Theatre on June 5, 1920, in what is now considered to have been another of Playfair's masterpieces.

 Ian Carmichael
High Spirits at the Hippodrome in 1953 had a less successful run (the theatre was all wrong for it, although the cast again was top-drawer) but later that year Carmichael was in an Alan Melville revue At The Lyric (the Lyric, Hammersmith) with another classic revue cast.
The production eventually moved into the Stoll Theatre where 'we were coolly received by the London critics … we appeared sadly dated'.
The doomed enterprise had previously toured America as The Carefree Heart (the title was commemorated in one of the show's songs), and Carmichael had been 'distinctly reserved' when the authors had first performed the songs for him and his leading lady, Joan Heal, at the Savoy Hotel.

 Rachel Roberts
Later that year Roberts was in the company of the revue At the Lyric (an apt title, for the show was staged at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith), and stayed for its West End transfer to the St. Martin's Theatre, where it was renamed Going To Town.
Rachel Roberts was born in Llanelli, Wales, on 20 September 1927, the daughter of the Revd.
Roberts' final musical was undoubtedly her finest moment in musical theatre, as the heroine of Lionel Bart's grand hymn to Liverpool, Maggie May. The role of the lovable dockyard tart had been intended for Georgia Brown, who turned down the chance to play it.

Neil Bartlett is sadly bowing out of his tenure as the Artistic Director of the Lyric Theatre Hammersmith.

Bartlett is interested in the apparent contradictions in the play, the ambiguity and the mixed messages one gets from the main characters.

The Lyric’s new artistic director David Farr brings in his RSC touring version of Julius Caesar, first seen on the road last autumn.
Zubin Varla’s curiously mannered Brutus, with a flat Olivier-like high-pitched delivery is no liberal idealist but a nervy false friend with a dazzling trophy wife in the shape of Rachel Pickup’s self-harming Portia.

 Essay on THE GOOD COMPANIONS (
Rachel Roberts had appeared in the revue At the Lyric (Lyric, Hammersmith London 1953).
TGC is not an integrated musical - the songs (with composition shared between Paddy Roberts(m/l), C. Alberto Rossi(m/l), and Geoffrey Parsons(l)) do not further character or plot, and the lyrics are not related to the story.
As no recordings of this exist, her featured spot in THE GOOD COMPANIONS ('The Gentleman is a Heel' number) provides a good indication of the style she must have brought to revue.

 Telegraph News Sheila Gish
She could easily have continued to play attractive - or despairing - belles for many years, but instead, when offered yet another West End plum, in Michael Frayn's Noises Off, she rejected it in favour of a low-budget production at the Lyric Hammersmith's smaller stage, where she played Racine's tragedy queen Bérénice (1982).
Sheila Gish was an actress of the old school: serious, dedicated to bringing the text to life on stage, undeviatingly true to the playwrights' intentions.
Sheila Gish, who died on Wednesday aged 62, epitomised the Tennessee Williams heroines she played on stage: a frail, delicate beauty with a spine of steel.
