Up for sale is an original vintage theatre programme for The Guildford Theatre Company’s September 1962 production of “Bedtime for Dragons”. This piece represents a significant moment in regional British repertory theater, written by actor-playwright Peter Whitbread, who also performed in the cast. The production was directed by William Sharkey with stage settings designed by Ian Knight.
The cast list boasts an extraordinary assembly of British character actors who went on to become recognizable staples of mid-to-late 20th-century television and film, including John Woodnutt (Doctor Who, The Tomorrow People), Roger Brierley (Jeeves and Wooster, Doctor Who), and Jeffrey Segal.
The program offers an excellent historical record of the period. The interior features a “From the Wings” biography panel detailing Peter Whitbread’s work, a preview for the upcoming production of Giles Cooper’s Everything In The Garden, and classic regional advertisements from the Surrey area. Local ads include Bon Marché (North Street), John Dolphin Antiques, Runfold Landscapes Ltd, Boxers Coffee Bar (Tunsgate), The Viking Restaurant (Crondall), and Walton Electrics.
