Modern Theatre Practice: A Handbook for Non-Professionals (Classic Reprint)

By Hubert C Heffner

Excerpt from Modern Theatre Practice: A Handbook for Non-Professionals

Out Of just such an amateur theatre developed the institution that bore and fostered the art of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes. Out of such another amateur theatre in medieval Europe came the theatre and drama of Shakespeare and Moliere; and out of the modern, free, amateur theatre in Europe and America have come the greatest contemporary playwrights, directors, actors, artists, and technicians those who have produced a renascence in the theatre and brought forth a new conception of its art, a modern theatre practice.
