The Exemplary Theatre is a book written by Harley Granville-Barker and published in 1922. It is a collection of essays and lectures that explore the theory and practice of theatre, focusing on the idea of the exemplary theatre. Granville-Barker argues that the exemplary theatre is one that is committed to artistic excellence and social relevance, and that it should be a place where audiences can engage with the world around them and reflect on their own lives. He also emphasizes the importance of collaboration between actors, directors, designers, and writers in creating a successful production.The book includes discussions of various aspects of theatre, such as the use of language, the role of the director, and the importance of stage design. Granville-Barker also looks at the history of theatre, from ancient Greece to modern times, and considers how different cultures and traditions have influenced the development of the art form.Overall, The Exemplary Theatre is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the nature of theatre and its potential to engage and inspire audiences. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of theatre and its place in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
