"Now the restaurant patrons were actors acting out a play before her, and she was the audience. Julia saw glimpses of them as they passed the arches: young men and young women; young men and young women; men with bald spots, with paunch; old sinners desperately clinging to the painted guise of youth they wore. Some were in love, some were indifferent, others were burning with jealousy"....
The legendary novel "Theater" by English writer Somerset Maugham was published in 1937. Its title not only designates one of the places of action, but also becomes a metaphor for the pretense and falsity that surrounds the main character - actress Julia Lambert.
Julia is the prima donna of the Siddons Theater, she lives in luxury, her fame rattles all over England, she has many admirers, but her family life is in discord. One day she falls in love with a young financier Thomas Fennell, but soon their romance becomes the main topic for gossip in theater circles. Even worse, Julia soon begins to doubt the sincerity of Thomas's feelings.....
