Royalty and Charity Aid Mrs Keeley’s 90th Birthday
The Queen and the Prince of Wales back charitable theater efforts in Mrs Keeley’s honor. A Lyceum reception and matinée, with proceeds to theatrical charities, will feature both veteran and new actors. Sir Henry Irving and Ellen Terry linked to the celebration. The Helena Cot is named for a hospital charity, while royal and noble figures support broader hospital and convalescent work.
