No ownership inscription. 215 pages clean and tight. The Chichester Festival Theatre, the first major British theatre to have a thrust stage, is still one of the most exciting theatrical spaces in the country. Since it opened in 1962, we have forgotten how difficult it was first of all to bring it into existence, and then to keep it alive - the hostility and criticism which it endured have largely been lost in the delight of the millions who have visited it. Other theatres have been built without a proscenium, but none of them have come to be so important in our theatrical life, with large audiences sitting in close and intimate circles about the performances of our finest actors, in productions by our best directors. Ronald Hayman tells the story of how an unconventional theatre - the dream of one…

Description:
London England: Davis-Poynter, 1975. Hardback. Price clipped to D/J. Some writing in pencil to back inside cover about the plays, the authors,. the directors, the designers, and the leading players. The author tells the story of how an unconventional theatre - the dream of one man - came to be built in a quiet West Sussex city, despite opposition and pessimism for all quarters. He discusses the challenges that the open stage presents to the actor, the difrector, and the designer, and the problems of choosing plays for it.
