When They Weren't Doing Shakespeare: Essays on Nineteenth Century British and American Theatre,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The richness of Victorian theatre has often been neglected because of the eras most celebrated productions of Shakespeares plays. Judith L. Fisher and Stephen Watt present a vigorous collection of eighteen essays covering the vast expanse of this other theatre, including social dramas, Christmas pantomimes, and adaptations of Gothic novels such as Guy Mannering and Metamora; or, The Last of the Wampanoags .Reflecting both the longings and values of the public and the theatrical conventions of the times, Victorian productions could capture audiences with the historical verisimilitude of William Charles Macreadys production of Richelieu or incite a storm of public outrage with the too explicitly fallen woman in Olga Nethersoles interpretation of Sapho . Playwrights worked at adapting such popular classic works as The Count of Monte Cristo or devising new melodramas such as Rent Day and Luke the Labourer . Pandering to the tastes of an expanding middleclass audience, theatre bills reflected popular fascination with the daily newspapers stories of social maladies. Transposed to the stage, bad men and women could be punished for wrongdoings in a way that was unlikely or impossible in real life. Emphasizing the variety of stagecraft in the Victorian age, the contributors to When They Werent Doing Shakespeare present a composite portrait of the vibrant theatrical worlds that existed in both nineteenthcentury New York and London.
