What reading level is The Play of Today; Studies in Play-Structure for the Student And the Theatre-Goer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now modem comedy is subtle, elusive, brightened by a delicate infused satire, which is different from the interpolated comic scene. It has a distinct intel- lectual trend. It does not make an audiejice nearly die laughing, like the comedic plays of the past, but it wakes them up. And the modem audience, being capa- ble of thinking quickly and responding instantaneously, likes to be put to the test in the theater.
Tragedy always so tries the soul while the play is going on that the brain never s...ets to work until after the performance is over; and farce and melodrama never stimulate thought at all.
" Lady Windermere's Fan " is full of illustrations in point. A few lines taken almost at random from Act in will show this appeal to alertness of mind which is so pleasing to the modern audience, and inci- dentally will mark the difference between the brilHant speech that is introduced just because it is brilliant, and the speech that not only scintillates on its own ac- count, but pushes the action of the play along at the same time.
