Excerpt from The Art of Acting: In Connection With the Study of Character, the Spirit of Comedy and Stage Illusion
One of the most engaging and fascinating of the arts, and which has an attraction for those even who do not frequent the theatres, is surely the Art of Acting. This art we must distinguish from the ordinary, rough-and-ready, journeyman sort of performance which is found at many theatres, in which there is little pretence at art; though the system is fairly sufficient, and found satisfactory by audiences.
