This collection showcases scholarship that complicates the theatrical anecdote and shows its many applications beyond providing the expected comic punch. Discussing anecdotal narratives about theatre people as producing, maintaining, and sometimes toppling individual fame, this book crucially investigates a key mechanism of celebrity in the long eighteenth century that reaches into the nineteenth century and beyond. The anecdote erases boundaries between public and private and fictionalizes the individual in ways deeply familiar to twenty-first -century celebrity culture"--  |c Provided by publisher.
