Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Second Nights: People and Ideas of the Theatre to-Day The first-nighter, as everybody knows, is a bored but witty person, with a black ribbon to his eye-glasses, who descends to his seat just before the curtain rises, and turns to survey the house ere he sits down. In New York, where theatres spring up overnight, he may be the large, red-necked man who supplied the concrete, but he is generally, at any rate, an insider, stirred by many things that pass the outsider by and inclined to be as concerned over the probable size of the audience on the third Tuesday as in the mere pleasure or nourishment to be had from the play. He is both spectator and participant, urging a new ship down the ways, and finds his interest divided perforce between the ship as a ship and the success of the launching. Author and players are waiting behind that closed curtain - be the play never so unimportant, there is mystery and excitement in the air.
