What reading level is The Drama Addresses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In fact, many of the Shakesperean parts were not played from 142 FOUR GREAT ACTORS the poet's own text, but Garrick might have doubted whether even his popularity would have reconciled his audiences to the unadulterated poetry of our great- est dramatist.
Next to Richard, Lear would seem to have been his best Shakesperean perform- ance. In Hamlet and Othello he did not equal Betterton ; and in the latter, certainly from all one can discover, he was infinitely surpassed by Edmund Kean. In fact O...thello was not one of his great parts. But in the wide range of characters which he undertook, Garrick was probably never equalled. A poor actor named Everard, who was first brought out as a boy by Garrick, says : " Such or such an actor in their respect- ive fortes have been allowed to play such or such a part equally well as him ; but could they perform Archer and Scrub like him ? and Abel Drugger, Ranger, and Bayes, and Benedick ; speak his own FOUR GREAT ACTORS prologue to Barbarossa, in the character of a country-boy, and in a few minutes transform himself in the same play to Selim f 3 Nay, in the same night he has played Sir John Brute and the Guardian, Romeo and Lord Chalkslone, Hamlet and Sharp, King Lear and Fribble, King Rich- ard and the Schoolboy !
