The Changing American Theatre: Mainstream and Marginal, Past and PresentEste libro de ensayos presenta una panorámica del desarrollo del teatro norteamericano desde principios del siglo XIX hasta la actualidad. Muestra los cambios que el teatro reflejó a medida que crecía el país y se modificaba la sociedad. Con cada década, una expresión más completa de la cultura norteamericana, con su gran variedad, aparecía en obras de teatro, musicales y revistas. Los ensayos analizan los esfuerzos de figuras marginales –sobre todo dramaturgos y productores no comerciales, afro-americanos y mujeres– para llevar a cabo una ampliación del espectro del teatro norteamericano en cuanto a la dramaturgia, diseño, representación y construcción dramática. |
