Qui a épousé Fay Compton?

Fay Compton, pseudonimo di Virginia Lilian Emmeline Mackenzie (Londra, 18 settembre 1894 – Londra, 12 dicembre 1978), è stata un'attrice inglese.

Ralph Michael (Londres, 26 septembre 1907 – 9 novembre 1994) est un acteur britannique de cinéma et de télévision.

Leon Quartermaine (24 September 1876 – 25 June 1967) was a British actor whose stage career, in Britain and the United States, extended from the early 1900s to the 1950s.

He was born in Richmond, London, and educated at the Whitgift School in Croydon, where one of his contemporaries was The Revd Harold Davidson, later unfrocked while Rector of Stiffkey. The pair acted together in a school production of the farce Sent to the Tower. In 1921 Quartermaine appeared with Fay Compton in a West End revival of J. M. Barrie's play Quality Street. In February 1922 Quartermaine and Compton married, and remained so until their divorce in 1942. Quartermaine made numerous appearances on Broadway between 1903 and 1935, including Laertes (Hamlet, 1904), Lieutenant Osborne in the American premiere of R. C. Sherriff's Journey's End (1929), and Malvolio (Twelfth Night, 1930). Quartermaine appeared in several films during the 1920s and 1930s, including As You Like It (1936) in which he co-starred as Jaques to Laurence Olivier's Orlando. After the Second World War, Quartermaine joined the Royal Shakespeare Theatre for the 1949 and 1950 Stratford festivals, in a company including John Gielgud, Peggy Ashcroft, Anthony Quayle and other leading Shakespearean actors, in Macbeth, Measure for Measure and Much Ado About Nothing. In 1951 he played the part of the Inquisitor in a BBC television adaptation of Shaw's Saint Joan.

Quatermaine had first been married to Aimée de Burgh. After their divorce, and after his later marriage with Fay Compton was dissolved, he married Barbara Wilcox, who had appeared in The Cherry Orchard as Dunyasha at the Old Vic in 1933 when he appeared as Gaev.

Quartermaine died on 25 June 1967, in Salisbury, Wiltshire. His younger brother Charles Quartermaine (who adopted the surname spelling "Quatermaine") was also an actor.

Harry Gabriel "H. G." Pélissier (27 April 1874 – 25 September 1913) was an English theatrical producer, composer, and satirist. He presented a number of theatrical productions during the Edwardian era, such as 'The Follies', many of them highly controversial, and even censored by the Lord Chamberlain. The banning of his 1909 satire of the patriotic play An Englishman's Home by Guy du Maurier was a major catalyst for the calling of the Parliamentary Enquiry into theatrical censorship of that year.
