Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Stage, Its Origins Modern Developments: A Critical Historical Study With the opening years of the present century there has been a remarkable revival of interest in theatrical affairs, particularly in what some deem the theatre's most important function: the production of plays depicting life and problems of the past and present, with the least possible sacrifice of truth to the necessary conventions and limitations of the Stage - and without those concessions to the supposed popular taste for pleasing endings, characteristic of the work of box-office playwrights. With playgoers there appears to be an increasing desire for serious, natural and thoughtful plays, the purpose of which according to Ibsen should be to represent human beings, human emotions, and human destinies on a groundwork of modern social conditions and principles. This movement towards realism, however, does not exclude the function of joy-giving which, when all is said and done, will continue to be the main objective of the playhouse. If we have the unrelieved gloom of Galsworthy's "Justice," we have also the racy humour of "You Never Can Tell." Few will dispute the fact that the "commercial" theatre adequately caters for the playgoer who primarily seeks amusement, sensation or sensuality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Stage tells the story of drama through its many changes in style and convention from medieval times to the present day. With a wide sweep of coverage, John Styan analyses the key features of staging, including early street theatre and public performance, the evolution of the playhouse and the private space, and the pairing of theory and stagecraft in the works of modern dramatists. He focuses on the conventions by which a playwright, actors and their audience create the phenomenon of theatre and the way such conventions have changed over time. Styan can be considered among a small number of influential scholars who have helped to develop theatre history from its origins in literary studies into an independent and respected field. From the vantage point of a lifetime's study he examines and illustrates the multitude of factors which have brought and continue to bring plays to life.
