Excerpt from Footlight Flashes If there be anything more detestable than writing one's Autobiography, the individual who now essays the task, would be glad to know what it is. This assertion is made fearlessly, and without dread of contradiction; but, if one of my captious readers should consider me unworthy of credit, let him, or her, try the experiment, and allow me to sit in judgment on the document. Everybody has doubtless heard the story of the man who was suffering from a bad cold in his head, protesting to his friend that "there was nothing in the world so bad as a cold in the head!" The friend protested that he was in error, and named as a greater affliction, "two colds in the head." The same may be said of an Autobiography. Nothing can be so bad as one, except the perpetration of two. The life of an actor presents to the youthful and superficial observer, charms of no ordinary degree of interest; for there is no profession that holds so much sway, or takes such firm possession of the youthful mind, as that of acting. Well do I remember loitering when a boy, for hours together at the stage doors of Co vent Garden and Drury Lane Theatres, to watch the actors arrive at, or depart from, those temples of the drama.

Eight Men Speak written by Oscar Ryan and has been published by University of Ottawa Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2013-03-30 with Literary Criticism categories.
This volume comprises a reprinting and gloss of the original text of the 1933 Communist play Eight Men Speak. The play was banned by the Toronto police after its first performance, banned by the Winnipeg police shortly thereafter and subsequently banned by the Canadian Post Office. The play can be considered as one stage–the published text–of a meta-text that culminated in 1934 at Maple Leaf Gardens when the (then illegal) Communist Party of Canada celebrated the release of its leader, Tim Buck, from prison. Eight Men Speak had been written and staged on behalf of the campaign to free Buck by the Canadian Labour Defence League, the public advocacy group of the CPC. In its theatrical techniques, incorporating avant-garde expressionist staging, mass chant, agitprop and modernist dramaturgy, Eight Men Speak exemplified the vanguardist aesthetics of the Communist left in the years before the Popular Front. It is the first instance of the collective theatrical techniques that would become widespread in subsequent decades and formative in the development of modern Canadian drama. These include a decentred narrative, collaborative authorship and a refusal of dramaturgical linearity in favour of theatricalist demonstration. As such it is one of the most significant Canadian plays of the first half of the century, and, on the evidence of the surviving photograph of the mise-en-scene, one of the earliest examples of modernist staging in Canada. - This book is published in English.
