The remarkable People’s Palace, a centre of democratic education and entertainment, put on a production of Greenwood and Gow’s play as soon as it was released for repertory company production in 1938. This article features the programme and flyers the People’s Palace designed and distributed in order to bring in as wide an audience as possible from the East End and beyond. Love on the Dole was advertised, together with three other recent plays, under the People’s Palace banner: Popular Plays at Popular Times at Popular Prices.
