Behind The Footlights: Or The Stage As I Knew It is a memoir written by W.C. Day in 1885. The book provides a detailed account of Day's experiences as a stage manager and actor in the late 19th century. Day offers an insider's perspective on the workings of the theater industry, including the challenges and rewards of touring, the relationships between actors and managers, and the technical aspects of stage production. He also shares anecdotes about famous actors and actresses of the time, including Sarah Bernhardt and Henry Irving. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of theater in the late 1800s and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the performing arts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
