What reading level is Parlor Tableaux And Amateur Theatricals book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The purposes of an elaborate stage-tableau are admirably displayed in this mythological subject. The scene repre- sents the goddess Aurora, accompanied by the Hours and AURORA. 255 Pleiads, heralding the chariot of day, which puryues its fiery course, driven by Apollo. An imitation chariot should be made, about three feet in height ; the frame made of thin strips of wood, and the outside covered with pasteboard or paper, painted blue, and heavily gilt. The front of the chariot should be curved ...outwards, and the sides sloping at an angle of forty-five degrees towards the right : there will be no wheels required, as the sides of the chariot will not be visible to the audience, being obscured from sight by the young ladies who stand in front. A covered box, two feet in height, should be placed inside the chariot for a seat. A box nearly three feet in height, and covered with bright-blue paper, is placed directly in front of the chariot, on the left. The lady personating Aurora stands upon this box, in front of the chariot : her body is inclined forward towards the left, resting upon the right foot, which is advanced in front of the left ; her left arm is raised, and extended forward towards the left, holding a wreath of flowers ; her right is extended on a level with her breast, towards the left, holding a bouquet and garland of flowers ; her face is turned towards the audience, looking back towards the centre at Apollo.
