Guided Walk: The Entertainers of Willesden - guided walks of Willesden Jewish Cemetery

 

Let our volunteers entertain you with some remarkable stories of the Entertainers who are buried at Willesden Jewish Cemetery. Theses guided walks will take you on a tour of Musicians, Actors and all-round theatrical characters who helped shape the world of entertainment over many years. Did you know that Lily Hanbury was the great aunt of James and Edward Fox?

Our trained volunteer guides will share with you fascinating stories from Michael Winner to Horace Goldin and music publisher Dick James who looked after the publishing rights for the Beatles and Gerry and the Pacemakers amongst others.
