Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution and decline of the British drama, contrasting the vibrant and innovative era of the Elizabethan theatre with the subsequent period of decline brought about by the introduction of a theatrical monopoly. The author argues that this monopoly stifled competition, hindered the development of new talent, and led to a decline in the quality and diversity of dramatic productions. The book also examines the impact of censorship and legislation on the drama, showcasing the ways in which it has been both protected and constrained throughout history. Ultimately, the author argues that the revival of the British drama requires the removal of restrictive practices and the fostering of a competitive environment that encourages creativity and innovation.
