Download or read book Curiosities of the American Stage written by Laurence Hutton and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of chapters from the annals of the American Theatre, and it focuses on plays and actors in their less familiar aspects. It makes no pretense of being critical, and every effort has been made to verify all of the facts it contains, to appeal to the small but select band of specialists known as Dramatic Collectors, as well as those influential members of the community who are proud to call themselves Old Play-goers. The chapters on "The American Stage Negro," "The American Burlesque," and "A Century of American Hamlets" were first published in Harper's Magazine; the others have been printed in part in other periodicals, but they have all been rewritten, elaborated, and extended in their current form. The portraits in this volume are from the collections of Mr. J. H. V. Arnold, Dr. B. E. Martin, Mr. Thomas J. McKee, Mr. C. C. Moreau, Mr. Evart Jansen Wendell, and The Players. The book is meant to both educate and entertain.

Download or read book The American Stage and the Great Depression written by Mark Fearnow and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-01-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Stage and the Great Depression: A Cultural History of the Grotesque proposes a correlation between the divided "mind" of America during the depression and popular stage works of the era. Theatre works such as Jack Kirkland's comic-horrific adaptation of Tobacco Road, Olsen and Johnson's "scream-lined revue", Hellzapoppin, and successful plays by Robert E. Sherwood, Clare Boothe Luce, and S. N. Behrman are interpreted as theatrical reflections of depression culture's sense of being trapped between a discredited past and a nightmarish future. The author analyzes the America of the 1930s as an era of the "grotesque", in which the irreconcilable were forced into tense and dynamic coexistence, and by examining these works of theatre as products of particular historical circumstances, argues for a strong connection between cultural history and theatre history.
