Synopsis
Excerpt from Theatrical Notes The substance of the following work has appeared in the Athen um, from the pages of which periodical it is with permission reprinted. It does not aim at supplying a full chronicle of the London stage during the period which it covers, notices of very many pieces of ephemeral nature or interest having been excised. Should this contribution to stage history prove acceptable, materials are in hand for a second volume, which will bring the matter up to date and link the drama of Byron, Wills and Albery with that of Mr. Pinero, Mr. Henry Arthur Jones and Mr. Grundy. Notices of French performances in London occupy a portion of the work larger than may perhaps appear desirable. It must be remembered, however, that the renascence of acting and of interest in the stage which the present generation has witnessed is to some extent due to the education afforded the public by the visits of foreign companies of world-wide renown, and the consequent demand for acting, which, though common now, a generation ago was not to be obtained.
