Theatre Performers Of Yesteryear

[susanxx]

This is one for the oldies out there. Does anyone know 100% if any of the following artists appeared at Morecambe Winter Gardens theatre? Cliff Richard, Cilla Black, Tom Jones, Peter and Gordon, Marmalade or any other names from the late 50's and 60's that anyone may have seen there? I have a list of many popular names from the era but these people don't appear on any list. I know the Stones, Who, Billy J Kramer, Gerry and the Pacemakers and many others have performed but some names I'm sure should be there are missing from my research. Any help would be great. Thanks

Got more names than on the list and no one has a definitive answer. The only sources are the local library(very limited) or people who actually saw the entertainers. There are no ledgers to show who, when and how much paid due to previous owners of the building putting things in skips! I am a Friend of the Winter Gardens and volunteer but cannot get anymore info other than to spread the net wider.

I understand, spend a lot of time in Morecambe in my youth - wish you well with your research.
