Roles included the maid in A Man For All Seasons[3] and the matron in Doctor Finlay's Casebook.[4] She was one of the co-founders of Glasgow's Curtain theatre company in 1933, and during World War Two she set up and ran her own theatre company, the MSU Theatre now known as the Rutherglen Repertory Theatre, in Rutherglen, Scotland.[5]
A dramatised version of her life was performed by Dumbarton People's Theatre. There is also a biography of Molly written by Helen Murdoch which is entitled Travelling Hopefully: The Story of Molly Urquhart.[6]
