Description

Explore the life and career of one of the Georgian era's most unique performers with this detailed study by Moira Goff. As the first full-length investigation into the English dancer-actress Hester Santlow, this book provides a deep look at her time at Drury Lane between 1706 and 1733. Moira Goff uses extensive archival resources to reconstruct Santlow's repertoire and evaluate her specific skills in both dance and acting. Readers will learn how Santlow shaped the development of dance on the London stage through her work in dance dramas by John Weaver and pantomimes by John Thurmond and Roger. This academic work also covers the virtuoso dances created specifically for her by Mr. Isaac and Anthony L'Abbe. Beyond her professional achievements, the text examines her personal life, offering a complete portrait of a woman who made a significant impact on 18th-century theatre, music, and dance.
