Channing Pollock (1880 - 1946) was an American playwright, critic, and screenwriter. This book is an autobiographical account of his life and experiences in the theatre. He covers such topics as rehearsals, first nights, and people he has met. His writing is hunmoros and rather 'tongue in cheek'. He makes no claims to being erudite, merely to having beenm there and observed.

Book Description
Theatre has provided many words and meanings which we use - ignorant of their origins - in everyday writing and speech. This is the first book to explore 2,000 theatre terms in depth, in some cases tracing their history over two and a half millenia, in others exploring expressions less than a decade old. Terms are defined, shown in use and cross-referenced in ways which will fascinate theatre-goers, help theatre students and encourage those engaged in the theatre to examine the familiar from new angles.
