| Summary | "Their Majesties' Servants: Annals of the English Stage (Volume 3 of 3)" by Dr. Doran is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This volume presents a detailed exploration of the English theater landscape, focusing on key figures and developments from the 18th century, particularly the shift in tragedy and comedy during a crucial period in dramatic literature. The book appears to delve into the lives and careers of significant playwrights and actors, capturing the evolution of theatrical culture. The opening of the book discusses the decline of tragic literature from the era following Shakespeare, with a noticeable lack of progress among tragic poets until the advent of new influences in the late 18th century. It contrasts this with the vibrant development of comedic works, spotlighting successful plays and playwrights of the time, such as Sheridan, who produced enduring classics like "The School for Scandal." This section sets the stage for an in-depth examination of theatrical figures and their contributions, including references to famous actors and the changing dynamics of audience engagement in the theater.
