CHINESE DRAMA THEATRE PROGRAM & ESSAYS Ernest K. Moyeditor.
Mei Lan-Fang Chinese Drama. Title page: The First American Tour of Mei Lan-Fang.
New York.: China Institute in America. No date. Ca. 1930. Booklet 12 ¼ x 9 ¼ inches 38 unnumbered pages plus decorative grey paper wrappers. Free-edge corners lightly bumped; former owners name in pencil on first page. Contents in good clean condition overall. Program with a collection of essays introducing the work of actor Mei Lan-Fang to the American Public. The first portion of the program contains a series of essays relating to Mei Lan-Fang and the Chinese Drama. Essays include a discussion of Mei Lan-Fang's appeal to his Chinese audience; another essay on the Chinese theatre as a distinctive art form; other essays on the character types in Chinese theatre and the role of the female impersonator Mei Lan-Fang's specialty. Further essays focus on the characteristics or "peculiarities" the term used of Chinese drama with additional essays on costumes stage properties and symbolism and musical instruments. The rest of the program provides synopses of eleven plays in his repertoire and a short introduction to a dozen "scenes" that enrich his repertoire—primarily in the form of dance. An uncommon program focusing on an actor whose work had a major impact on Western Drama. Perhaps Mei Lan-Fang's greatest impact on Western theatre is found in the work of German dramatist Bertolt Brecht especially Brecht’s concept of "Verfremdungseffekt" understood as a "distancing" or "estrangement" effect. The program and essays provide valuable documentation of Mei Lan-Fang's presence and impact on American theatre. . China Institute in America. unknown

A Murder is Announced: Play Acting Edition
London: Samuel French Ltd. Very Good/Not Issued. 1978. Card Cover. 8.5" x 5.375" 0573112959 Copyright stated as 1978. Play adapted for the stage by Leslie Darbon. Some underlining and marginalia mostly in pencil but some in biro covers a little dusty. This copy has survived well given that it was almost certainly used for a live performance. Agatha Christie plays are difficult to date and establish printing sequence since the Publisher usually indicated the copyright date only on the copyright page and as far as we are aware no standard work exists on the points of these plays. This is an early printing but may not the first; buyer to decide. Weysprings Books is a Member of: the IOBA and PBFA and subscribes to the Associations' Codes of Ethics. . Samuel French Ltd
