Holder. 330 $aThis 2004 Companion is designed for readers interested in the creation, production and interpretation of Victorian and Edwardian theatre, both in its own time and on the contemporary stage. The volume opens with a brief overview and introduction surveying the theatre of the time followed by an essay contextualizing the theatre within the frame of Victorian and Edwardian culture as a whole. Succeeding chapters examine specific aspects of performance, production, and theatre, including the music, the actors, stagecraft and the audiences themselves; plays and playwriting and issues of class and gender are also explored. Chapters also deal with comedy, farce and melodrama, while other essays bring forward new topics and approaches that cross the boundaries of traditional investigation, including analysis of the economics of theatre and of the theatricality of personal identity. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 517 3 $aThe Cambridge Companion to Victorian & Edwardian Theatre 606 $aTheater$zEngland$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aEnglish drama$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish drama$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aTheater$zEngland$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 676 $a792/.0942/09034 702 $aPowell$b Kerry 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996205072703316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to Victorian and Edwardian theatre$92493457 997 $aUNISA
