Louisa Lane Drew was a prominent lady in Philadelphia, known for her management of "Mrs. John Drew's Arch Street Theatre". We continue the story we began in Part One, and complete our examination of her life and career, covering the period from 1862 to 1897. We even finally bring on the Barrymores! And, of course, Mrs. Malaprop.
Voice of Mrs. Drew performed by Susan Riley Stevens.
