Explanatory footnotes[edit]

  1. ^ In the late 1920s, two companies of actors were touring simultaneously with Sunny in the provinces; one with Lascelles as "Sunny", the other with Elsa Brown in the same role, performed at the King's Theatre, Southsea (Mon 8 – Sat 13 August 1927), for example.(Portsmouth Evening News; 9 Aug 1927) In 1932, Lee Ephraim organised a new tour, this time with Lalla Collins as "Sunny", at the Alhambra Theatre, Glasgow (Mon 6 – Sat 11 June 1932).(The Stage; 9 Jun 1932) The present list includes only those performances with Lascelles in the leading role, from 4 July 1927 to 31 May 1930, plus those of Lee Ephraim's short, year-end seasonal run from 24 December 1932 to 21 January 1933, when Lascelles reprised the role for a final time.
