About this book

Actress Jessie Millward recalls her life in the theatre, from her family and early career to leading London stages and visits to America. Henry Irving, William Terriss, Charles Frohman and other performers and managers appear in her recollections.

The chapters move through rehearsals, productions, friendships and the changing circumstances of a working theatrical career. Written in collaboration with J. B. Booth, the complete 1923 memoir retains its eighteen illustrations, their credits and the concluding list of parts Millward played.
