Fitzgerald Ball

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.
