A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It is easy to say Do this and Don tdo that. I ndeed, I could have reiterated both at such length that I might have written a book quite as long as this on any one of the points that I have tried to take up here chapter by chapter. I do most fervently believe that the dry bones of stage technique can be taught in fact, all my personal experience goes to prove this. I have been handling plays now for more years than I care to remember, and have found in case after case that a little technical adjustment will turn i an unmarketable play into a commercial propo! sition. 1Y et when all is said and done, I am no believer in hard and fast rides. The one point always to bear in mind is that any rule, however necessary, can be modified to suit each individual case. A bove all, times change. What is desired one year will be met with indifference the next. The great precept which no dramatist can afford to overlook is, that he must study the needs of his time. Agnes Piatt. 24, Old Bublington Stbeet, W. 1.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
