Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Granville Barker on Theatre brings together some of the most important critical theatrical writings of Harley Granville Barker, a major figure of 20th-century British theatre. Known as a pioneer of the National Theatre and Repertory Movement, and remembered mainly for his Prefaces to Shakespeare, from the 1900s to his death in the 1940s Granville Barker commented enthusiastically in newspaper items, introductions to plays, articles, essays, articles, and published lectures on a range of topics: the nature of theatre as an art form and as a social medium, the need for ensemble playing in a repertory system, the relationship between the three chief constituents of theatre – the actor, the playwright and the audience. Granville Barker on Theatre makes available again these writings in which Barker dissects the state of theatre as he saw it, with coruscating critiques of the commercial system, the long run and censorship, the vitality of theatre outside Britain, and what he saw as the welcome renaissance of theatre in non-professional groups liberated from the profit motive. These writings show a master practitioner concerned with, above all, promoting a new type of drama; vital not only for its own sake but for the sake of the health of society at large.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Burnt out...inside." Joan, THE SECRET LIFE, ACT ONE, Scene 1 "[Granville Barker] stands, in my eyes, second to none of his contemporaries.... I do not hesitate to say that I consider [his] plays the biggest things our modern movement has produced." William Archer (1922) "It is a very great thing, that play of yours [THE SECRET LIFE]." T E Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia), 1923 Harley Granville Barker's mostly forgotten masterpiece, THE SECRET LIFE (1923), has had only two productions, none in the United States and none during Barker's lifetime. This rich and deeply personal play, set in post-World War I England, charts a world that has become rudderless and lost, and where love between a one-time rising politician and a woman draped in tragedy cannot be reignited. The Heritage of The Actor, included here, written as a companion piece to THE SECRET LIFE, is one of Barker's most concise and brilliant essays on the art of making theater. Harley Granville Barker, (1877-1946), actor, playwright, director, producer, theatre visionary; his other plays include AGNES COLANDER, THE VOYSEY INHERITANCE, WASTE, THE MADRAS HOUSE, and HIS MAJESTY. Other writings include the multi-volume Prefaces to Shakespeare, The Exemplary Theatre, and A National Theatre. Preface by Richard Nelson and Colin Chambers

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All four figures in this volume have been canonized as central to 'stage-centred' Shakespearean scholarship and stage practice. From William Poel's reproductions of early modern stages in the late nineteenth century to Sam Wanamaker's reconstruction of the Globe on London's South Bank, they all viewed Shakespeare's plays as being enmeshed in the social and historical dynamics of theatremaking and theatregoing. The volume considers how their attempts to recapture early modern performance conditions can be considered progressive.
