Dressing Room Allocation for Lover’s Meeting by Louis D’Alton

In the old Abbey Theatre…

The stage management files for early productions include items such as props list, curtain cues, lighting plans and on occasion administrative records including dressing room allocations. In the old Abbey Theatre the majority of the dressing rooms were located to stage right. With a relatively small cast only one of the dressing rooms is shared allowing veterans of the Abbey Theatre company such as F.J. McCormick, Eileen Crowe, Maureen Delaney, Ria Mooney and M. J. Dolan their own personal space. The signature of the stage manager Udolphus Wright is missing on this occasion.
