Don’t Forget The Pierrots!“ The Complete History of British Pierrot Troupes & Concert Parties: The Complete History of British Pierrot Troupes & Concert Parties

Tony Lidington

* The book demonstrates how a vernacular British performance form emerged as a hybrid of forms from Afro-American and minstrel, as well as French mime and Italian commedia dell'arte roots.

* Theatre history is an essential part of theatre and drama courses across the UK and would be recommended reading.

* There is no comparable book which makes critical analysis of British pierrot troupes and concert parties in existence - the only ones that do exist on the specific topic are written as reminiscence and anecdote.
