Grein ("Jack") (October 11, 1862 - June 22, 1935) was a Dutch-born theatre impresario and drama critic who helped establish the modern theatre in London, England. His greatest contribution was founding the Independent Theatre Society in 1891. Their first production was Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts in 1891, held as a private performance since it was not officially licensed by the Lord Chamberlain. In 1892 the Society produced George Bernard Shaw's Widower's Houses, the first production of a Shaw play. The Independent Theatre Club was previously Fanny Kelly's Royalty Theatre in Dean Street. very rare. 12.5 x 19cm.approx.
