"This wonderfully amusing collection of nearly 400 anecdote [constitutes] a unique, informal history of the theatre, in both England and America. Donald Sinden has organised the book chronologically, from Christopher Marlowe to Maria Aitken, and in between all manner of actors, actresses, producers, directors, prompters, stagehands and impresarios have their parts to play. Their observations, advice, rebukes and repartee, couched in humorous form, make this book a splendid treasure-trove, to be enjoyed by all."
