[edit] Inaccurate source
There's a source in this article that says Marie Litton operated the theatre under the name of the Belgravia - this is wrong. See, for example, The Graphic (London, England), 22 April 1871; Issue 73 "Mr. Gilbert has followed up his successful fairy comedy at The Haymarket with a one-act piece of the same character at The Royal Court Theatre". W. S. Gilbert, Original Plays, Fourth Series (1911), page 329: "Randall's Thumb, An Original Comedy in Three Acts - First performed at the operning of the Royal Court Theatre under the management of Miss M. Litton, 25th January, 1871." It tended to be called "The Court" in most newspapers, but never the Belgravia - I believe that was a completely different theatre.
