A large format volume of 245 photographs and illustrations. The authors sought not to present a history of the theatre and its productions, an enterprise which would require a series of substantial volumes, but an evocation of its past and present. They have chosen to use, for the most part, visual images rather than the written word, partly because they are more immediate, but partly because they wished to portray the theatre by means of a family album. The pages show some of the great artists who have appeared there, the landmarks of its history, and to indicate something of the role it has come to assume both in the culture of the nation and internationally. PLEASE NOTE: A LARGE HEAVY VOLUME OF 1.22 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST L Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall
