Jack the Ripper already on the list, but Barnardo certainly wasn't.
I have been populating the list, which I will publish in due course, we have 74 so far, this is seriously good guys.
But I am positive their are several more out there........
Let's find out the real theatre aficionados, who have too much time on their hands.

Have we had Pickwick? and the short lived Hard Times? Does Cox and Box count? Isn't "Hard Times" set in Coketown, aka Manchester?
How about "Bashville" and "Bashville in Love" - both based on the G.B. Shaw play "The Admirable Bashville"? Parts are set in London.
