Nick Bromley

Following his success with THEATRE LORE, a backstage dictionary that is a considerably cheaper asset than enrolling at a drama school, Nick next tackled another essential theatre book to give you further sleepless nights.

STAGE GHOSTS AND HAUNTED THEATRES takes you on a spectral visit to other 50 theatres in the UK from the relative safety of your armchair and is now in its fourth edition.

Nick has been working in theatre since the 1960's as a Company Stage Manager and Director, and hopes with the aid of modern medicine to reach a centenary anniversary. He is the current Master of the Drury Lane Theatrical Fund and his book CAKES AND ALE: Mr ROBERT BADDELEY AND HIS TWELFTH NIGHT CAKES is a biography of an early Fund member, a stalwart actor in David Garrick's company who was responsible for Great Britain's oldest existing theatrical ceremony, the Baddeley Cake. Now, Nick's latest book, CRY HAVOC! is a rip-roaring 1920's adventure thriller, the start of the series chronicling the adventures of Roger Farqhuar, whose dangerous and at times disastrous theatrical career also entails larceny, espionage, detection and of course, the occasional corpse.
