Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Guide to the Stage: By Austin Frye Rs Author of Pauper a Pauper With an Etc
The papers which make up this little volume are founded on my own actual experiences. Several of them were contributed anonymously to the Free Lance, and at the time of their publica tion I had no intention of their re-issue in a permanent form. The interest they aroused has led me to believe that the volume now submitted to the public may prove useful.
I have to thank Mr Beerbohm Tree for the appreciative references he has made to this little work and to myself in the introduction he has so kindly supplied; and also Miss Gertrude Kingston, Mr W. Clarkson, and Mr Ben Nathan, for the contributions with which they have favoured me, which so instructively and interestingly supple ment my own.
Had the articles appeared originally over my signature, some portions would have been differ ently expressed, or, perhaps, omitted; but the sincerity of my design is, I trust, so manifest that I do not see a necessity for any wholesale revision.
