Editing Wilson Barrett (section)

===Death===
Wilson Barrett died in a nursing home in London on 22 July 1904. Thanks largely to the success of the ''Sign of the Cross'', he left £57,000, even after periods of relative failure, mainly during his later years managing the Old Court Theatre.<ref name="losttheaters">[https://books.google.com/books?id=5AQ71r_JC6YC&dq=Hoodman.Blind+wilson.barrett&pg=PA176 London's lost theatres], at [[Google Books]]</ref> His grandson, also named Wilson Barrett, became an actor director with the Brandon-Thomas Company before starting his own repertory in 1939, the Wilson Barrett Company, which based itself in Edinburgh's Lyceum, Glasgow at the [[Alhambra Theatre Glasgow]] and for a time in Aberdeen. It also performed on television, at the Edinburgh International Festival and, by invitation, in South Africa. The company was retired in 1954.
