Lily Hanbury (1873 – 5 March 1908) was an English stage performer. Hanbury was born Lilian Florence Alcock,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=FreeBMDBirth&h=43058329&ti=5538&indiv=try&gss=pt&ssrc=pt_t75836436_p42329733165_kpidz0q3d42329733165z0q26pgz0q3d32768z0q26pgplz0q3dpid ) ('Subscription required')〕 the daughter of Elizabeth (née Davis) and Matthew Henry Alcock.〔http://www.thegenealogist.co.uk/featuredarticles/wdytya_emiliafox.php〕 Educated in London, her début was in an 1888 revival of W. S. Gilbert's ''Pygmalion and Galatea'';〔 Note that ''Pygmalion and Galatea'' did not play at the Savoy Theatre in 1888, so the NYT is in error on that point.〕 and later she appeared on most of the leading stages of the English metropolis. Her extensive repertory included, 'Countess Wintersen' in ''The Stranger''; 'Hetty Preene' in G. R. Sims' ''Lights o' London''; and 'Petra' in Ibsen's ''Enemy of the People'. She reached her peak in popularity, however, by playing a number or roles in Shakespearian plays, mainly under the management of Wilson Barrett and Beerbohm Tree. Hanbury died on 5 March 1908 of medical complications following the delivery of a still-born child.〔 Following cremation, Hanbury's ashes were interred at the Jewish Cemetery at Willesden, England. Hanbury's younger sister, Hilda, also an actress and one time member of Herbert Beerbohm Tree's theatrical company, is the grandmother of Edward Fox and James Fox and the great-grandmother of Freddie Fox, Emilia Fox and Laurence Fox. Lily and her sister Hilda had a pet named "Wobbles" who died in 1900 and is buried in Hyde Park's pet cemetery.〔http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/travelnews/11782731/Inside-Hyde-Parks-secret-pet-cemetery.html〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lily Hanbury」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
