Opera tag[edit]

I removed the opera project tag placed here by a bot. Taylor was a playwright, not a librettist. -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:05, 31 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've checked, as requested, and entirely concur that the opera project tag is, on present evidence, inappropriate. Tim riley (talk) 18:48, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This uncited material was removed from the article. Is it verifiable that Taylor was a founder of the Old Stagers and that the other information given below is true with respect to Taylor?:

During 1842, Taylor, together with his Cambridge friends Frederick Ponsonby (Earl of Bessborough), Charles G Taylor and William Bolland, formed the Old Stagers, which is recognised as the oldest amateur drama society still performing. The Old Stagers were invited to perform at the Canterbury Theatre during the Canterbury Cricket Week. Taylor performed, under his nom de theatre "J. Noakes, Esq", with the Old Stagers for more than 20 years. He was usually also Stage Manager and wrote many epilogues at the end of the Canterbury Cricket Week. He and the Old Stagers also performed in Royal Leamington Spa in 1852, and at the Theatre Royal during the I Zingari Cricket Week of 1853. Most of the Old Stagers played cricket for I Zingari during the day and performed on the stage in the evening, but there is no evidence to suggest that Taylor played cricket. -- Ssilvers (talk) 15:29, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
