Title: The Theatre
Description: This book about English Drama was first published in 1931 but since the world of theatre changes and evolves constantly, Marriott decided to revise and edit *The Theatre* so that it fits the current time. Marriott takes a look at the history of drama and theatre (he stated that the chapters about the past remained mostly unchanged from the first publication), without limiting himself to English drama. Occasionally the topics are illustrated by pictures and photographs in between the writing. It goes without saying that William Shakespeare is often mentioned and he has about 2 chapters devoted to him and his friends. Then there are 2 chapters about the dramatists of the author's time, as well as a chapter about various plays and playwrights from all over Europe.

Though it's not quite right to add this person as a second author, I would like to add that a certain Gabrielle Enthoven was credited by the publishers to have helped them with the selection of illustrations for this book.
