"Christopher Fitz-Simon celebrates the Abbey Theatre's centenary by offering a witty chronological survey of the company's distinguished and colorful history. Beautifully illustrated with cartoons, sketches and production photographs from the Abbey archives and elsewhere, The Abbey Theatre provides an unparalleled overview of the great actors, directors and playwrights of twentieth-century Irish theatre, as well as detailing the company's long and illustrious relationship with other European and American theatres and playwrights. It also contains a complete list of plays produced at the Abbey Theatre since 1904 and features a preface by the Abbey Theatre's current artistic director, Ben Barnes."--Jacket.
