Formed after World War I in 1920 after uniting the Pageant Committee with the indoor dramatic activities of the Suburb, it eventually merged with the Speedwell Players in 1966 to form the Garden Suburb Theatre which is still active now.

Photos and documents showing off the more dramatic side of the Suburb, whilst famous for its pageants, also had a more serious Theatrical side.

A large number of programmes produced by the Play and Pageant Union for their productions, until their merger with the Speedwell Players in 1966 to create Garden Suburb Theatre. 

This collection documents the articles written in and about the Suburb, ranging from resident produced publications such as Suburb News, to local papers such as the Ham and High and national perodicals like The Lady.

This play was well-received by audiences and a great success for the Play and Pageant Union.
