The Glasgow Stage (1892) is a book written by Walter Baynham that provides a comprehensive history of the theatre scene in Glasgow during the 19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of theatre in Glasgow, including the various venues, the actors and actresses who performed there, and the types of plays that were popular during this time. Baynham provides detailed accounts of the various theatres that were active in Glasgow during the 19th century, including the Theatre Royal, the Princess's Theatre, and the Britannia Music Hall. He also discusses the various changes and developments that occurred within these venues over time, such as the introduction of gas lighting and the rise of music hall entertainment. In addition to providing a history of the theatres themselves, Baynham also profiles many of the actors and actresses who performed in Glasgow during this time, including well-known figures such as Ellen Terry and Henry Irving. He also discusses the various types of plays that were popular in Glasgow during the 19th century, including melodramas, farces, and Shakespearean productions. Overall, The Glasgow Stage (1892) provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of theatre in Glasgow during the 19th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of theatre or the cultural history of Glasgow.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
