About the Game
The Littlers - Emile, Prince & their sister Blanche were at one time the most powerful figures in the theatrical world of the West End & Provincial theater, with almost a total monopoly in producing musicals & pantomime in the UK.
This game was designed by Emile & was intended to give an interesting insight into the numerous hazards to the pursuit of stardom.
Players, starting from the Village Choir, would throw the dice & proceed along the track towards the School of Dramatic Art obeying the various directions on the way.
The correct number required must be thrown to finish on Stardom & the first player to reach here wins the game.
Amongst others Emile Littler was responsible for putting the young Radio & Variety star, Julie Andrews, into his pantomimes as the Princess in 'Aladdin' & this game is a delightfully produced & highly collectible period piece.
