Here is another publication that's hot off the press and just in time for Christmas! It's called 'Blockbusters of Victorian Theater, 1850–1910' and published by McFarland & Co. My chapter is called 'L'Enfant Prodigue - A Prodigious Production', all about the French pantomime production of 1890/91 which inspired Clifford Essex to create the first British seaside pierrot troupe and which also provided the subject-matter for the first ever full-length feature film to be produced in Europe.
