About this book
Reviews
'This delightful, charmingly illustrated account of Queen Victoria's long-lasting and eventful love affair with the theatre offers no less entertainment than sociological illumination. No one is better fitted to tell this story than Richard Schoch, and he does with deep scholarship, verve and flair.' - Professor Stanley Wells, Shakespeare Centre
'...amiable study of Queen Victoria's theatre-going.' - John Bowen, Times Literary Supplement
'Queen Victoria and the Theatre of Her Age is a little gem of beautifully researched detail, full of quotations from original sources; the surprising, the thought provoking, the amusing and the bizarre'. - Charlotte Zeepvat, Royalty Digest
'As with Schoch's previous excavations of Victorian theatricality, this is a very enjoyable, red-plush study.' - Plays International
