Stephen Kemble

Stephen Kemble (1758-1822), the second son of Roger and brother of Charles and John Philip, was rather an indifferent actor

He was ever eclipsed by his wife and fellow player, Elizabeth Satchell Kemble (c. 1763-1841), and a man of such portly proportions that he played Falstaff without padding. He managed theatres in Edinburgh and elsewhere.
