About Stage Folks is a book written by William Ellis Horton and published in 1902. The book is a collection of essays and anecdotes about the people who work in the theater industry, including actors, actresses, directors, playwrights, and stagehands. Horton’s writing style is humorous and light-hearted, but he also provides insights into the challenges and rewards of working in the theater. He describes the personalities and quirks of famous actors and actresses of the time, such as Sarah Bernhardt and Edwin Booth, as well as lesser-known performers who worked behind the scenes.The book also includes chapters on the history of the theater, the role of women in the industry, and the impact of technology on stage productions. Overall, About Stage Folks is a fascinating glimpse into the world of theater in the early 20th century, and a tribute to the hardworking and talented individuals who make it all possible.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
