Trade Review
Both encyclopedic and vast … A welcome addition to the scholarship on early-twentieth-century British theatre. * Journal of Dramatic Theory and Criticism *
The volume is meticulously documented and is an essential reference for an extensive range of courses on twentieth-century theatre and future research in theatre history ... The volume is also accessible to a wide public, admirably bringing to life theatrical ventures and figures that have made today's British theatre. * New Theatre Quarterly *
