"The English Stage: Being an Account of the Victorian Drama" by Augustin Filon is a historical account that was likely written in the late 19th century. This work offers a thorough examination of the evolution of drama during the Victorian era, highlighting key figures and trends that shaped English theatre. It discusses notable playwrights, actors, and the cultural movements that influenced the theatrical landscape, providing insights into the development of English drama from its classical roots to contemporary forms. The opening of the book sets the stage for a rich exploration of Victorian theatre, beginning with the dynamic interplay between esteemed actors like Edmund Kean and Macready, while also examining the broader context in which they operated. Filon provides an engaging look at the theatrical scene from 1820 to 1830, discussing the societal perceptions of actors and the collapse of traditionally privileged theatres, alongside the emergence of new playwrights and dramatic works. These discussions are framed by a commentary on how the theatre both reflected and interacted with societal changes, laying the groundwork for a nuanced understanding of the Victorian drama that the book aims to explore.
