Examines the creative strategies and public reception of Oscar Gustave Rejlander, Henry Peach Robinson and other British photographers of the Victorian era whose works were both conceived and perceived with theater in mind. Notes the antitheatrical prejudice which informs the controversy which these photographs generated.
