About Charles Brookfield
- Charles Hallam Elton Brookfield (19 May 1857 – 20 October 1913) was a British actor, author, playwright and journalist, including for The Saturday Review.
- His most famous work for the theatre was The Belle of Mayfair (1906). Brookfield achieved success in a 20-year acting career, including with the company of Squire Bancroft at London's Haymarket Theatre in the 1880s.
- After he was diagnosed with tuberculosis, in 1898, Brookfield focused on writing plays and musical theatre.
- In his last years, he was Britain's Examiner of Plays, even though he had been criticised as biased against various playwrights and also for writing a particularly risqué comedy in 1908.
