Pepys On The Restoration Stage is a book compiled and edited by Samuel Pepys, a renowned diarist and naval administrator of the 17th century. The book was first published in 1916 and is a collection of Pepys' observations and reviews of plays performed during the Restoration era in England, a period known for its lively and bawdy theatrical productions.The book includes Pepys' firsthand accounts of plays he attended, including detailed descriptions of the actors, costumes, and sets. It also features his critiques of the plays, providing insight into the cultural and social norms of the time. Pepys' writings offer a unique perspective on the Restoration stage, as he was a prominent figure in English society and had access to the highest levels of the theatre world.In addition to Pepys' observations, the book includes an introduction by editor J.
