The Geisha quickly returned for a second Scottish tour, just as popular as the first. Geraldine Ulmar and Rutland Barrington had moved on, but many of the principals from last time remained. A fortnight over New Year in Edinburgh was followed by three weeks in Glasgow and a further week in Dundee. The whole tour had been scheduled to last a year, and after the first few weeks the opportunity could be taken to rest performers for a week at a time.
The first week in February is blank. The obvious place, Aberdeen, does not seem to have received a second visit, but the company is hardly likely to have gone south before returning for the second visit to Dundee. Likewise the touring theatres in Paisley and Greenock were occupied by other shows. Nor did The Geisha return for a further week at the Lyceum.
Full cast is from programme in NLS collection (week commencing 4 January), with variations from Glasgow Herald and Dundee Courier.
