Bag om The Critic Or A Tragedy Rehearsed

""The Critic Or A Tragedy Rehearsed"" is a play written by Richard Brinsley Sheridan, first performed in 1779. It is a satirical comedy that pokes fun at the conventions and pretensions of the theatre world. The play follows the story of a group of actors who are rehearsing a serious tragedy, but are constantly interrupted by a pompous and clueless theatre critic who is determined to impose his own ideas on the production. Along the way, the play skewers everything from bad acting to overwrought stage effects, and offers a witty and irreverent take on the theatre industry. With its sharp wit, clever dialogue, and playful tone, ""The Critic Or A Tragedy Rehearsed"" remains a beloved classic of English theatre, and a testament to Sheridan's skill as a playwright and satirist.SNEER. Most obligingly communicative indeed; and your confession if published, might certainly serve the cause of true charity, by rescuing the most useful channels of appeal to benevolence from the cant of imposition.--But surely, Mr. Puff, there is no great mystery in your present profession?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
