15. If You are Going to Wing-it, Do It Right!This phrase dates from the late 19th century and the verb 'to wing' was defined in an 1885 edition of Stage magazine:"'To wing'... indicates the capacity to play a role without knowing the text, and the word itself came into use from the fact that the artiste frequently received the assistance of a special prompter, who... stood... screened..by a piece of the scenery or a wing. ̄The phrase 'winging it' is used in print explicitly in 1933, although it must have been well-established before then, in a book that could hardly be better equipped to explain the meaning, Philip Godfrey's Back-stage: a survey of the contemporary English theatre from behind the scenes:"He must give a performance by 'winging it' - that is, by refreshing his memory for each scene in the wings before he goes on to play it."
