What reading level is Some Principles of Elizabethan Staging book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" This can perhaps, since it is so very unrealistic, be interpreted as a discovered scene. The Golden Age, 1611 (Queen's, Red Bull), p. 67, cannot so be explained, however. The direction reads: "Enter the foure old Beldams drawing out Danae's bed: she in it. " The scene changes as in the instance just mentioned, from ante- chamber to bedroom.
30 George F. Reynolds sometimes urought upon the stage without the slightest explana- tion. Perhaps these properties were not used on the front stage, but
... wherever used they were brought on in sight of the audience, which amounts to the same thing. The only obvious reason for not supposing properties on the front stage is the difficulty, delay, and lack of realism in the bringing on and taking off. Difficulty and delay one may admit, but realism — so far as the plays go, there is no indication that the Elizabethans were at all adverse to the bringing on of furnishings before them. If one can judge from the frequent occurrence and long continuance of the custom, they rather enjoyed it.
