Joseph Holloway undoubtedly was one of the most devoted playgoers that the world has ever seen.  From the 1880s until his death in 1944, he attended practically ever first night in his native city of Dublin.  He not only saw the last great actors of the nineteenth century - Bernhardt, Irving, Coquelin, Duse, Rejane - but as the architect of the Abbey Theatre he was intimately involved in the Irish Dramatic renaissance.  Fortunately he kept a journal of his encounters with James Joyce, George Moore, and others and this volume is one of those many his journal eventually came to.
