Thomas Betterton (Classic Reprint)1kg Limited, 2018 M02 5 - 206 páginas Excerpt from Thomas Betterton The chapter dealing with the Restoration Playhouse, its structure and arrangements, and the manners and customs which prevailed before and behind the scenes, will, I h0pe, interest both the general reader and the specialist. No such systematic attempt has hitherto been made, so far as I am aware, to paint an accurate picture of the surroundings amid which Betterton acted - to describe the material conditions of the stage for which Wycherley and Congreve wrote.
