Babes in the Wood 1 showcard for the London Palladium's production of Babes in the Wood at the Essoldo, Southport, in 1961-2. The card gives cast and production credits, theatre information, ticket prices and showtimes in predominantly black and navy lettering, with the additional use of green, orange and yellow for background decoration and illustration. These consist of two children holding hands in the bottom left hand corner and on the right side Robin Hood (cast as a principle boy wearing a short belted playsuit, heeled boots, feathered cap, quiver and bow) on a tree stump with the head of a robber-type character (with long moustache and eye patch) peering out from behind a tree. 23 Dec [1961] - [1962]
