Anna Cora Mowatt Ritchie
Mimic Life; or Before and Behind the Curtain
Step into the enchanting world of the Victorian theater with Mimic Life; or Before and Behind the Curtain, a captivating collection of three narratives inspired by Mowatt’s own experiences on stage. In the stories Stella, The Prompter’s Daughter, and The Unknown Tragedian, we uncover the daily struggles faced by theatrical workers of the time and challenge the enduring prejudices against this vibrant profession. Join us for a journey that sheds light on the artistry and resilience behind the curtain. - Summary by Kelly S. Taylor
