"Achter de schermen" by Joseph J. Schürmann is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book details the author's experiences as an impresario, sharing significant anecdotes and memories related to the world of theater and performance.

The opening of the memoir introduces Joseph Schürmann, a seasoned impresario with over thirty-five years of experience in the theater world. It describes his childhood love for acting and how he transitioned from the family business in textiles to becoming an influential figure in the arts. The text highlights pivotal moments in his career, such as his efforts to bring prominent artists like Sarah Bernhardt to the Netherlands, detailing both the triumphs and challenges he faced while managing theatrical performances across Europe. These early insights set the stage for a deeper exploration of the theater's glamorous yet challenging aspects as the memoir unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
