Howard and Wyndham Limited 1888 - 1948
60 Years of Pantomime and Beyond

In the list of eminent Pantomime Producers - Augustus Harris, Arthur Collins, Walter and Fred Melville, Robert Courtneidge, John Hart, Robert Arthur, Frances Laidler, must be included Fred Wyndham, one of the founders of Howard and Wyndham Limited. It was the policy of the firm to continue the tradition of F.W. Wyndham's productions and to either produce pantomimes themselves or bring in the likes of Littler or Wylie-Tate to produce shows at their theatres.
J.B. Howard (1841 - 1895) and Frederick WP Wyndham (? - 1930) were well known figures in Edinburgh theatrical life as both managers and actors.
|
Theatre impresario and actor, Wyndham trained in Edinburgh under William Murray at the Theatre Royal, which once stood in Leith Street. In 1883, he formed a partnership with J.B. Howard to run the Royal Lyceum Theatre, which became the theatre management company Howard & Wyndham Ltd. in 1895. They also leased the Theatre Royals in Edinburgh and Glasgow and the Royalty Theatre in Glasgow. Only weeks after the formation of the company, Howard died from stroke in his office, aged 54.
The King's Theatre, Edinburgh was built in 1905 by Edinburgh builder, William Stewart Cruikshank. Andrew Carnegie laid the foundation stone and the Theatre was opened in 1906 with a performance of Cinderella and managed by A Stewart Cruikshank. Initially the programming of the theatre was undertaken under contract by Howard & Wyndham and A Stewart Cruikshank became a Director (and in 1928 Managing Director) of this company which managed a chain of theatres in Britain rivalling Moss Empires. Moss Empires were the owners of The Empire Palace Theatre, which is now the Edinburgh Festival Theatre, the King’s sister theatre.
In 1912 Wyndham also took over the Robert Arthur group of six theatres increasing Howard & Wyndham Ltd's theatres to ten. Four of these newly acquired theatres were in England; in Newcastle, the Shakespeare and the Royal Court in Liverpool and in Nottingham. Howard & Wyndham Ltd also had presence in Dundee and Aberdeen.
Wyndham retired in 1928 and Stewart
Cruikshank became managing director of Howard & Wyndham Ltd, staying
there until 1946 when he died in a car crash. Wyndham kept his seat on
the board until his death in 1930. |
The King's Theatre became the headquarters of Howard & Wyndham and they held their board meetings there and famously their AGM on Christmas Eve - which guaranteed minimal interference from shareholders! After A Stewart Cruikshank retired, his son Stewart inherited the Managing Directorship. Howard and Wyndham sold the Royal Lyceum Theatre to Edinburgh Council in 1965 and after Stewart Cruikshank's death in 1966 a similar deal was done with the King's Theatre.
The initial list of 60 years of H&W Pantomimes was
compiled from the book of the same name, we are now attempting to fill in the
gaps after 1948 and any information which you have will be gratefully received.
Please email it to us here at IBY and we'll try and complete the listings for
H&W.
