Boys, The: A Biography of Micheal Mac Liammoir and Hilton Edwards Book
An excellent biography.""-Hugh Leonard. Ireland's inter-war years possessed an unprecedented artistic vibrancy. Two figures of genius dominated the artistic scene in Dublin during this period. Hilton Edwards and Michael MacLiammoir were actors of formidable range and power. Edwards was also one of the finest theater directors in the English-speaking world; MacLiammoir was also a set designer and playwright. Together they founded the Gate Theatre in Dublin in 1928 (where their `discoveries' included Orson Welles and James Mason). Dogged by shortage of funds yet maintaining a salon-like existence, they were intent on the gay life in every sense. The fruit of much original research, this double biography allows these two flamboyantly talented figures and their bohemian society to live again. Christopher Fitz-Simon is also the author of The Irish Theatre and The Irish Village.Read More
