| Summary | "I'd Like to Do It Again" by Owen Davis is a memoir written in the early 20th century. This work reflects on the author's long career in the theater as a playwright, sharing his journey from a young boy fascinated with drama to a successful playwright in the American theater scene. The text delves into his experiences, influences, and the evolution of theater throughout his life, highlighting the transformative moments and people that shaped his career. The opening of the memoir introduces readers to Davis's early passion for writing plays, beginning with his first work at the age of nine, which he humorously recalls. He reflects on his upbringing in a family with strong ambitions, particularly influenced by his mother. As he recounts his experiences, he paints a vivid picture of his struggles in the theater, including his unsuccessful attempts to launch his career amid the harsh realities of a competitive industry. The narrative sets the stage for an exploration of his artistic development and the challenges he faced as he transitioned from aspiring actor to recognized playwright, establishing the groundwork for the stories and insights that will follow in the book.
