One of our fellows is having trouble contacting Mme Tussauds for curatorial
help. Their website and phone system is only set up for tourist information
advice. They do not reply to her emails. Does anyone have contact details
for a member of academic staff there so she can bypass the phone loops?
Many thanks
Emma

Dear Emma,
What I'm looking for is information on narrative history tableau at Madame
Tussauds during the 19th c., as well as whether or not Victoria herself
appeared in wax. I know that Madame Tussaud's commissoned a version of
George Hayter's coronation picture, which I've seen in a 2003 Christie's
sale, but wonder about how it was used by/displayed at Madame Tussauds. If
you have any ideas of whom I could contact for this information I would
greatly appreciate it. Many thanks.
Yours,
Cory
