The Story of the Palace Theatre Watford
by Ian Scleater
published by Atlantic Publishing    ISBN: 978-0-9558298-4-0


The Palace Theatre is one of Watford's best-known buildings but little was known of its early years. Many stories abounded, from the tale that Charlie Chaplin trod its boards to a myth that Bob Hope was booed off its stage. The Story of the Palace Theatre Watford has been extensively and meticulously researched to give definitive versions of these stories and to produce an authentic account of the Palace's evolution. The list of celebrated actors and actresses who have 'trodden its boards' is impressive and this thorough and detailed book lists many of the distinguished artistes who have graced its stage, together with a comprehensive list of all productions in the theatre's history.

From the opening production of "The Diver's Luck" on the 4th January 1909 to the present day, this is a complete list of all productions at the Watford Palace Theatre
