Description
Jitters, David French's sophisticated backstage comedy, opens on the night of a preview of a new play, "The Care and Treatment of Roses." Within minutes, the audience is plunged into the world of the theatre, a world of instant loves and hates, easily bruised egos, contradictory interpretations of role and script--all complicated by crises involving faulty props, lost lines and bad reviews, and all magnified by the opening night "jitters" of cast, crew, writer and director. First performed in 1979, Jitters was an instant critical and commercial success.
In just a few years, the play was produced in nearly every regional theatre in Canada and enjoyed several American performances as well; and the published edition, introduced by Talonbooks in 1980, has gone through many printings.
The play has been substantially changed in the process of undergoing its more than one hundred productions, and appears here in its revised edition.
