"Charles Calvert." Colleague of Jonathan Dewhurst Lancashire Tragedian and Shakespearian Actor, 1837. Web. 28 Nov. 2015.

This is a picture of Charles Calvert, a British actor and theatre manager who was well known for his phenomenal Shakespeare productions that featured very elaborate staging and historically accurate sets and costumes. My professional stage debut came in 1869 with his company at the Prince’s theatre in Manchester. He helped me kick off my acting career by giving me many opportunities by casting me as the featured role in many plays.
