Excerpt from Playhouse Impressions This is a book of reprints. About half the articles are from the Speaker; the rest (except one from Black and White, and a fragment from the Illustrated London News) are from the National Observer and the Star. To the several editors who have courteously sanctioned their republication I tender grateful thanks. As essays in dramatic criticism they do not pretend to be systematic or authoritative. Their sole aim has been to fix and record the fleeting sensations of the moment. Anything like a complete survey of the contemporary English stage would have been altogether beyond my purpose. I have been content to take the luck of the playbill, and so have often fallen upon banyan days. Hence one or two of our foremost dramatists are represented by plays which are certainly not their best. Others, whose names are placarded on the hoardings in the largest type, are not represented at all. Doubtless they have all, the popular and the unpopular, their several stations in the dramatic hierarchy; but it has been no affair of mine to "place" them. That is the function of judicial or dogmatic criticism - of which there are already, I submit, professors enough and to spare. The ideal critic is pictured by the crowd, now as a milestone "standing upon the antique ways," now as a finger-post on the "high priori" road.

Until his death in 1944, Holloway attended almost every performance of the Abbey Theatre and daily recorded in his journal his reactions to plays and players and his comments about and conversations with literary and theatrical people. From the journal’s 221 bulky volumes, housed in the National Library of Ireland, Mr. Hogan and Mr. O’Neill have compiled this book of extracts from the approximately 25,000,000 words written by the Irishman. The years from 1899 to 1926 were chosen because they are generally considered to be the significant ones for the Abbey Theatre: the year of its founding to the production of Sean O’Casey’s The Plough and the Stars, which caused a riot in the theatre. Mr. Holloway attended every play during these years, as well as many rehearsals, and talked with nearly everybody who had anything to do with the theatre. This journal reflects the tensions, feuds, and anguish that produced one of the great theatres of modern times. The meticulous display of minute detail makes Joseph Holloway’s Abbey Theatre imperative reading for the student of modern theatre, particularly since its character as a daily account permits ready checking of dates listed in previous works about the Irish National Theatre.

In Microdramas, John H. Muse argues that plays shorter than twenty minutes deserve sustained attention, and that brevity should be considered a distinct mode of theatrical practice. Focusing on artists for whom brevity became both a structural principle and a tool to investigate theater itself (August Strindberg, Maurice Maeterlinck, F. T. Marinetti, Samuel Beckett, Suzan-Lori Parks, and Caryl Churchill), the book explores four episodes in the history of very short theater, all characterized by the self-conscious embrace of brevity. The story moves from the birth of the modernist microdrama in French little theaters in the 1880s, to the explicit worship of speed in Italian Futurist synthetic theater, to Samuel Beckett’s often-misunderstood short plays, and finally to a range of contemporary playwrights whose long compilations of shorts offer a new take on momentary theater. Subjecting short plays to extended scrutiny upends assumptions about brief or minimal art, and about theatrical experience. The book shows that short performances often demand greater attention from audiences than plays that unfold more predictably. Microdramas put pressure on preconceptions about which aspects of theater might be fundamental and about what might qualify as an event. In the process, they suggest answers to crucial questions about time, spectatorship, and significance.
