H. G. Pélissier

Harry Gabriel "H. G." Pélissier (27 April 1874 – 25 September 1913) was an English theatrical producer, composer, and satirist. He presented a number of theatrical productions during the Edwardian era, such as 'The Follies', many of them highly controversial, and even censored by the Lord Chamberlain. The banning of his 1909 satire of the patriotic play An Englishman's Home by Guy du Maurier was a major catalyst for the calling of the Parliamentary Enquiry into theatrical censorship of that year.
