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.

Photos charting the productions put on by the Play and Pageant Union from the 1930s up until the 1960s when they merged with the Speedwell Players to form Garden Suburb Theatre. 

The Play and Pageant Union put on the historical comedy, 1066 and All That, featuring some incredible costumes.

This is the programme from the Play and Pageant Union's 1939 Production of "1066 and All That", a comic journey from the Romans to the Victorians featuring music throughout.
