Description

Combining the history of playwriting and the development of acting, stagecraft and management, this edition includes recent developments in the realm of American theatre up to 1980. As in the first edition it features "imaginary visits" to the theatres of each era from Colonial times to the present-- from buying a ticket to attending the afterpiece and walking home.
