Encompassing those developments, this edition offers a wealth of information about contemporary writers, directors, actors, companies & theaters, both metropolitan & regional. At the same time, it continues to provide an authoritative survey of the theater's evolution, from its beginnings in primitive ritual to present-day trends in all countries that have an ongoing theatrical tradition. * An extensive cross-referencing system has been incorporated into this edition to guide the reader to related information. A generous bibliography is also included. Technical entires emphasize the historical perspective, throwing new light on the remarkable feats of earlier practitioners of theatrical illusion; they are illustrated where necessary w/ diagrams. Over 200 other illustrations are placed in thematically arranged groups; functioning independently of the text, they show the changes in vision affecting theatrical production over more than 2,000 years. * Whether one's interests lie in Greek tragedy or in commedia dell'arte, in Moliere or in Tom Stoppard, this, the 4th edition of one of the most successful Oxford Companions, is an indispensable work of reference for all theater-lovers. * "Irresistible . . . Every possible aspect of the theater is examined . . . a mass of brilliantly presented information." - Sir John Gielgud, The Spectator (London) * "Immensely valuable w/ ts vast accumulation of facts about buildings, techniques of performance, scenery, lighting, & make-up, as well as about authors & actors of all periods & places." - Ivor Brown, The Observer (London).
