But in the early 1800s, only white actors were allowed to perform Shakespeare.

There he honed his acting skills and eventually performed at the acclaimed Theatre Royal Haymarket. Through perseverance and determination, Ira became one of the most celebrated Shakespearean actors in Europe, and a public supporter of the abolitionist movement.This chapter book edition includes blackandwhite illustrations as well as sidebars on related subjects, a timeline, a glossary, and recommended reading.
