### ⭐⭐⭐ Excellent work, terrible editing
*by K***R on April 12, 2018*

This book serves as an excellent history of gay and lesbian theatre through the 20th century. I would happily rate it five stars were it not for the absolutely terrible copy-editing in the Kindle version--frequently lines are offset, there are a legion of misspellings, and there are an entire three pages in Love! Valour! Compassion! where every line is attributed to Buzz.
