Summary
"The Sydney playbill offers tantalising glimpses of the social and cultural life of the early colony. What was the significance of the plays performed? Who were the players and their audiences? What kind of theatre did they perform in? The Playbill and Its People answers these questions and examines the fascinating history of Georgian theatre and performance in Australia"--Back cover.
