What reading level is Practical Hints On Training for the Stage book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not too much to say that a costume play can only be convincingly rendered if the actors playing in it are suffi- ciently familiar with the literature of the time to use words characteristic of the period with ease. If an actor is not acquainted with the meaning of the words he uses he is liable at any moment to make some silly mistake if his memory should be temporarily hazy. I remember hearing one lady say: "Father, will you shrove me?" She meant "shrive me, " but as she had not the leas...t idea what the word really implied and as she had at some time or other heard of Shrove Tuesday, which she associated with pancakes, the word "shrove" came more easily to her lips. When I ventured to point out the mistake she said : "Oh, it's near enough. " It may have been for her !
I remember feeling furious with the late Words and Their Value 85 Sir Herbert Tree because he would say "Seneco" for Seneca from beginning to end of one particular play; I do not know why, as he was certainly the last man from whom one would expect a mistake of this sort.
