Applaudissements et rappels (1880-1930) Pratiques majoritaires et tentatives d’inflexion des normes

This article attempts to reconstruct the customs involving bows, curtain calls, and other end-of-show conventions in drama theaters in Paris between 1870 and the end of the 1930s, before considering the proposals made during this same period by a number of theater reformers (including Wagner, Appia, Antoine, Lugné-Poe, Craig, Copeau, Jouvet, and Stanislavski).
