This page refers to the costume ball held at Rotherham House on Thursday 16th May in honour of Lady Olivia Fitzgerald's coming out into society. The theme of the ball is characters from Shakespeare.

For the purposes of the ball, the screen between the music room and gilded drawing room will be thrown open to create a long ballroom. Supper will be served in the dining room and the green drawing room will be used for cards. The billiards room will be open for any gentlemen wishing to play and the library will be available for guests to leave their wraps. If it is a warm evening, the doors in the library out onto the garden will be left open.

Costumes

THE HOSTS
Viola Fitzgerald: Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing
Olivia Fitzgerald: Miranda from The Tempest

THE GUESTS
Charlie Devenish: Malvolio from Twelfth Night
William Devenish: Orsino from Twelfth Night

Henry Layton: A bear from The Winter's Tale
Catherine McAvoy: Lady Macbeth from Macbeth

George Hackett: Anthony from Anthony and Cleopatra

Lunete d'Aubin: Hermia from A Midsummer Night's Dream
Jean Laurent d'Aubin: Rosencrantz and/or Guildernstern from Hamlet
Rawdon Montgomery: Guildenstern and/or Rosencrantz from Hamlet

Honoria Bartram: Duchess of York from Richard III. A Burgundian gown of deep blue with a deep v-neck and fitted sleeves over a red undergown like so. The dove grey trims of the gown are matched by the wide belt cinched above the natural waist. Her head is covered by a simple black truncated hennin with a turned-over brim and lappets sans veil. A little brooch with a ruby adorns the side of one of the lappets, quite nearly matching the colour of the undergown.

Edmund Mayoh: Oberon from A Midsummer Night's Dream

Ira Wilson: Prospero from The Tempest

Blanche Carey: Anne Boleyn from Henry VIII
