Produktbeschreibung
Sir Oswald Stoll (20 January 1866 9 January 1942) was a British theatre manager and the co-founder of the Stoll Moss Group theatre company. He also owned a film production company and studio in Cricklewood. Born in Melbourne, Australia as Oswald Gray, Stoll moved to England with his mother after the death of his father. When his mother re-married, he took his stepfather's last name. At a young age, he left school to help his mother manage first the Parthenon music hall in Liverpool, and later a regional theatre company. The company was a success, and Stoll began to buy or build city theatres. The theatre business made Stoll a wealthy man, and during 1898 he merged his business with that Edward Moss, one of his competitors to form Moss Empires. By 1905, almost every large town in Great Britain had an "Empire" or a "Coliseum" theatre, managed by Stoll.
