The Little Theatre Guild of Great Britain (''LTG'') is an Umbrella organisation promoting and supporting independent amateur theatre companies which have control over their own premises and produce drama of a high quality for the benefit of their communities. It has been credited with being pivotal in securing recognition for the theatrical contribution of little theatres in the United Kingdom.〔John Gunn, ''Acting for You'', page 119 (john gunn), 2006, ISBN 0-9775899-3-5, ISBN 978-0-9775899-3-7〕 ==History== The Little Theatre Guild, was founded in 1946 to represent the views of Amateur theatres across the UK.〔(Official site )〕 Its original membership was nine〔Phyllis Hartnoll, ''Performing Arts'', page 310, Omega Books, 1988〕 with groups such as The Crescent Theatre, Highbury Little Theatre and The Questors taking a leading part in its foundation.〔 By 1988 this had increased to 30 and by 2010 to 103 theatre companies, some of which are outside of the UK. The major restriction for membership is that it is open only to those amateur theatres that own or lease the theatre premises upon which productions are mounted. Similar to the National Drama Festivals Association, the LTG organises festivals of amateur drama across the United Kingdom. 〔Barry Turner ''The writer's handbook guide to writing for stage and screen'', page 14, Writer's Handbook Guides Series (Pan Macmillan), 2003, ISBN 1-4050-0098-8, ISBN 978-1-4050-0098-7〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little Theatre Guild of Great Britain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
