Gerald Leslie Lawrence (23 March 1873 – 9 May 1957) was a British actor and manager.[1]

Lawrence was born in London in 1873, the son of Emily Mills née Asher (1832-1912) and John Moss Lawrence (1827-1888), an investor. Lawrence studied stagecraft with Frank Benson before founding his own Shakespearean company with William Haviland (1860-1917) - the Haviland and Lawrence Shakespearian & Dramatic Company - which during 1897 and 1898 toured South Africa where, among others, they performed Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing. In the cast was Lawrence's wife Lilian Braithwaite, whom he had married shortly before the tour.[2]
