What reading level is Theatrical Bristol book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
During her engagement which extended to 1781, the great tragedienne appeared as Emehna in " The Fatal Marriage," Portia, Belvidera, Mrs. Candour, Lady Macbeth, Sigis- munda, and on one occasion as Hamlet, thereby antici- pating Sarah Bernhardt by nearly a century.
Henceforward, Mrs. Siddons came to Bristol only as a " star," Indeed the time was now not far distant when Charles Lamb was to lament the disappearance of the all-round cast. Speaking of old play bills, he remarks sadly, " they make u...s think how we once used to read a Play-Bill — not, as now peradventure, singling out a favourite performer, and casting a negligent eye over the rest ; but spelling out every name, down to the very mutes and servants of the scene." For the future, aU-round excellence was to give place to individual brilliance, and the names of the celebrated actors and actresses who came to Bristol, belong, not to the Theatre Royal, but to' the metropolitan stage. With one excep- tion, no local interest attaches to their presence.
