SYNOPSIS This thesis consists of an Introduction, followed by Part I (chapters 1-2) in which nineteenth- century criticism of the play is discussed, particular attention being paid to Helen Faucit's essay on Imogen, and its relationship to her playing of the role. In Part II the stags-history of Oymbcline in London is traced from 1785 to Irving's Lyceum production of 1896. Directions from promptbooks used by G-.P. Cooke, W.C. Macready, Helen Eaucit, and Samuel ±helps are transcribed and discussed, and in the last chapter the influence of Bernard Shaw on Ellen Terry's Imogen is considered in the light of their correspondence and the actress's rehearsal copies of the play. There are three appendices: a list of performances; transcriptions of two newspaper reviews (from 1843 and 1864) and one private diary (Gordon Crosse's notes on the Lyceum Gymbeline); and discussion of one of the promptbooks prepared for Charles Kean's projected production.

    THE THEATRICAL HISTORY OF WICHITA, KANSAS ' I 1872 - 1920 by Patricia Ann Mather A.B., University __of Wichita, 1945 Submitted to the Department of Speech and Drama and the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Redacted Signature Instructor in charf;& Redacted Signature Sept ember, 19 50 'For tne department PREFACE In the following thesis the author has attempted to give a general,. and when deemed.essential, a specific picture of the theatre in early day Wichita. By "theatre" is meant a.11 that passed for stage entertainment in the halls and shm1 houses in the city• s infancy, principally during the 70' s and 80 1 s when the city was still very young,: up to the hey-day of the legitimate theatre which reached. its peak in the 90' s and the first ~ decade of the new century. The author has not only tried to give an over- all picture of the theatre in early day Wichita, but has attempted to show that the plays presented in the theatres of Wichita were representative of the plays and stage performances throughout the country. The years included in the research were from 1872 to 1920. There were several factors which governed the choice of these dates. First, in 1872 the city was incorporated, and in that year the first edition of the Wichita Eagle was printed. Second, after 1920 a great change began taking place in the-theatre. There were various reasons for this change.

A Word of Introduction I have had this book published to the memory of my father, Roswell Parish, who compiled the material over a period of more than 50 years. He retired at 70, lived to be 92 years old, and the last 20 years of his life were spent almost entirely in gathering together this genea­ logy of the descendants of John Parish, also a much larger one of the descendants of Richard (Bull) Smith of Smithtown, L. I., forebears on his mother's side. The beginnings of this material came from family records and as dates and new names were added from various publications and as discrepancies and occasional errors appeared, the gathering and arranging of what seemed reliable material, especially of dates, became an interest­ ing avocation with a view to a more correct and compre­ hensive record of John's descendants. For purpose of cross reference and indexing, but with no suspicion then of its peculiar advantages, the following was very early adopted as a convenient :r-rUMBER SYSTEM. The children of every family were numbered from 1 up as listed, but in cases of more than nine children "a" was used for 10, "b" for 11, etc.

  • Centrality, Orthodoxy and Self-Reflexivity In
    Prague Journal of English Studies Volume 1, No. 1, 2012 '2,SMHV ISSN: 1804-8722 “Our Little Parish of St. James‘s”: Centrality, Orthodoxy and Self-Reflexivity in the 1890s London Theatre Rudolf Weiss In the 1890s the London theatre was governed by the idea of centrality. is most representative and most prestigious theatrical territory was ruled by the actor-manager, the monocratic director who also played the leading roles. Moreover, he was the arbiter in matters of dramatic aesthetics, in matters of dramatic ethics as well as audience reception. Henry Arthur Jones and Arthur Wing Pinero, the most popular playwrights of the period, provided them with leading parts which reflect their managerial functions in the dramatic world: the raisonneurs in their society dramas manipulate the action, advise the other characters and represent social and moral orthodoxy. e article explores the concept of centrality in the London theatre of the 1890s on various interconnected levels – theatre management, dramatic technique, functions of the raisonneur and ideological implications of the scène à faire as well as audience structure and audience taste. A special focus is placed on the essential (self)reflexivity of this “little parish”, where the managerial structures of the mainstream theatre are mirrored in the conventional dramatic aesthetics of society drama, the predominant genre in the repertoire, which echoes the mind-set of the majority of the spectators. 1. Introduction: the authority of the actor-manager In her introductory chapter to e Cambridge Companion to Victorian and Edwardian eatre Nina Auerbach claims that all the contributions in this volume “insist on the centrality of the theatre in nineteenth-century culture; until the end of the century, its broad popularity gave its conventions the aura of universality” (4).

Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.
