BiographyHistory

Registered as Hugh J. Ward Theatres Ltd, but better known by the public as Fuller-Ward, this theatrical partnership between Hugh J. Ward and Benjamin Fuller (Fullers Theatres) was established in 1922 as a means of producing lavish musical comedies. The productions were staged either at the Princess Theatre (Melbourne) or at Sydney's Grand Opera House, until the St James Theatre opened in March 1926. The venture ended later that same year following Ward's retirement from the industry.
