| This exciting second edition provides an exceptional range of plays edited by leading scholars of Restoration and eighteenth-century theatre. In addition to fifteen plays from the first edition are four new plays and one new afterpiece: Nathaniel Leeâ s The Rival Queens, John Vanbrughâ s The Provoked Wife, David Garrickâ s Miss in Her Teens, Richard Cumberlandâ s The West Indian, and Elizabeth Inchbaldâ s Such Things Are. Every play now features an engaging headnote and a fully edited dramatis personae, prologue, and epilogue. The innovative introduction plunges its readers into the experience of playgoing in London, and the second edition also features supplementary texts, including select actor and actress biographies and theatrical documents that provide a vivid cultural context. |
