Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theatrical 'World' of 1897 I deny that heaven is a dramatist. I contend that to put into dramatic form and shapeliness the confused tangle which we find in life is the very art and business of the dramatic author. Mr. Archer admits that there are no absolute truths in aesthetics; I have admitted that he has hold of half a truth; is he quite certain that I have not hold of another half? He has gone so far as to concede (page 222) that the well made play has its merits and is an art-form deserving of respect. This comforts me. And when he intimates (page 203) that deliberate formlessness and artful inartificiality may be pushed to extremes, I feel that he is on the high road to the discovery that they may be as puerile and irritating as the crudest machinery. The real question is not, and never was, Has Eugene Scribe spoken the last word of theatrical technique? That last word will never be Spoken on this earth. The real question is: IS form an element of the highest art? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The World of the Theatre written by James Thomas Grein and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World of the Theatre: Impressions and Memoirs, March 1920-1921 Before presenting this batch of criticisms in all the impersonality of their original journalism, I suppose I must introduce myself and shew my credentials. This is rather a difficult matter; for, like other folk, I may not see myself quite as others see me; and my theatrical credentials are of such a kind that it is impossible for me to draw them up myself without either seeming egotistical or doing an injustice to the importance of the movement I had, and still have, at heart. In this dilemma I had resolved not to introduce myself at all when it occurred to me that I might extricate myself by taking the opinion of my old friend Bernard Shaw. He is my contemporary and was my colleague in those days when, as I think, I did the State some service. If he cannot introduce me nobody can. I wrote him an artless enquiry as to what he thinks I ought to say about myself. Here is his reply: "My Dear Grein: It is now very close on thirty years since you madly began an apparently hopeless attempt to bring the English theatre into some sort of relation with contemporary culture. Matthew Arnold had suggested that step; but nobody in the theatre took the slightest notice of him, because nobody in the theatre knew of the existence of such a person as Matthew Arnold. That was what was the matter with the theatre then. There was nothing wrong with the acting: I cannot remember any actor or actress then occupying a leading position who could be called an amateur or a duffer: they had all been "through the mill," and could make intruders who had not, look ridiculous. The theatres were better managed than they are now: the front of the house was not always controlled by the bar; and at the best theatres all petty cadgings like charges for programs and cloak room fees were abolished. The public was so seriously interested in the theatre that it booked seats months in advance: in fact, it was by the booking that a manager knew when his run was coming to an end. Photographs of actors and actresses cost a shilling each; and at this price the Stereoscopic Company did a big trade in them.

Download or read book At the New Theatre and Others the American Stage written by Walter Prichard Eaton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from At the New Theatre and Others, the American Stage: Its Problems and Performances, 1908-1910 During the seasons of 1908 - 09 and 1909 - 10 the most interesting developments in the American dramatic world have been the steady rise to strength of an opposition to the so-called Theatrical Syndicate and the opening of the New Theatre in New York. The New Theatre is still, after one season, an experiment. It is not truly an endowed Institution, but a private playhouse depending for its support on the continued good will of its wealthy founders. It was not democratic in its inception nor planned by men shrewdly versed in the difficult craft of the theatre. It has labored under a great handicap. Its future usefulness, if not its very existence, will depend upon how well those at its head learn the lesson of experience. But its field of possible achievement is mighty; it repre sents a significant effort to place the drama in this country upon a level with the other arts, above the truck of commerce. The rise of an opposition to the Theatrical Syndicate has been, in a different way, no less signifi cant and, so far, very much more successful.
