William Chapman (actor)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chapman was a regular at Covent Garden.

William Chapman was a British stage actor active in the late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century. Considerable uncertainly exists about his early biography,[1] but he became an established performer in London's West End at the major theatres Covent Garden, Drury Lane and Haymarket. Considerable crossover may exist with other actors of the era named Chapman.[2]
