- "Copyright, 1920, by Thomas Seltzer, Inc.
- "My conception of a people's theatre is of a theatre run on a co-operative basis, a theatre in which all the ideas which really interest the proletariat may receive the fullest and freest expression, a theatre which is youthful and alive. ... A wave of interest in, and enthusiasm for the theatre is sweeping across Europe, ... The plays will be written. I hope that 'The People's Theatre Society' will help to bring them to light, and, by giving trial performances of them, do some of the preliminary spadework which will be necessary before the people's theatre proper can be established in England on a permanent basis."--Introduction.
