Jump to
Laura Henderson (6 December 1863 – 29 November 1944) born Laura Forster, rose to prominence in the 1930s when, as a wealthy and eccentric widow, she founded the Windmill Theatre in London's Great Windmill Street, in partnership with Vivian van Damm. With Henderson as owner and van Damm as manager, they turned the theatre into a British institution, famed for its pioneering tableaux vivants of motionless female nudity, and for having "never closed" during the Blitz.
