The Picture of G. Or Strangers’ Guide (1812)
Theatre Glasgow or Theatre Royal in Queen Street in Glasgow was part of a merchant effort to form Queen Street and create new development (The Theatre Royal, Queen Street, Glasgow (arthurlloyd.co.uk)). Formerly the site of a market garden including fruit trees, the site was purchased by the Council who then raised the funds for construction with public subscription. It officially opened in April 24, 1805 and was “unequalled out of London” (The Theatre Royal, Queen Street, Glasgow (arthurlloyd.co.uk)).
The stage would host some of the era greats, including the Kembles and Edmund Kean (The Story of the Scots Stage (electricscotland.com))
