[HEPBURN, Katharine and Robert HELPMANN]

Old Vic Australian Tour 1955 [cover title]... The Old Vic Company with Katharine Hepburn and Robert Helpmann in Three Plays of William Shakespeare. Australia, 1955... Productions under the Direction of Michael Benthall

London, Old Vic Theatre, 1955.

Quarto, [24] pages with numerous illustrations (including 6 in colour).

Wrappers a little rubbed, marked and lightly stained, with a tiny hole in the rear cover; ownership signature on the front cover (with further details on the title page); still a very presentable copy.

The tour ran from mid-May to mid-November 1955; during the Adelaide season (October 3 to 22) the original owner managed to secure the ink signatures of Hepburn and Helpmann on their full-page portraits in this program. Both signatures are now quite faint, but this is a rarity nonetheless.
