This is the only book to provide an account of how popular theatre developed from the fairground booths of the eighteenth century to become a vehicle of mass entertainment in the following century. Whereas other studies offer a traditional approach to the theatres of high culture; John McCormick takes the role of impartial historian; uncovering the popular theatres of the boulevards; suburbs and fairgrounds. He focuses on the social and economic context in which vaudevilles; pantomimes and melodramas were performed; and explores the audiences who enjoyed them.
