Book excerpt: In 1935, a group of journalists and theater artists embarked on an unusual collaboration. With funds from the Federal Theatre Project (FTP), a Depression-era employment initiative established by President Roosevelt?s New Deal, they set out to produce news for the theatrical stage. Over the next four years, the New York?based team created six productions, known as the Living Newspapers. Covering a variety of public issues that included affordable housing, the plight of Dust Bowl farmers, the Tennessee Valley Authority, and labor law, Living Newspaper productions would reach hundreds of thousands of spectators and inspire adaptations across the country. Staged News interprets the Living Newspaper?s process and repertoire amid journalists? changing conceptions of their profession. Jordana Cox spotlights marginalized ?newsmakers,? particularly Black artists, who challenged the parameters of public knowledge and assumptions surrounding newsworthiness. This timely analysis uncovers how a vital theatrical form sprouted from a changing news landscape and reimagined what journalism could do for people seeking democratic change.

Book Synopsis Crisis Theatre and The Living Newspaper by : Sarah Jane Mullan
Download or read book Crisis Theatre and The Living Newspaper written by Sarah Jane Mullan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-11 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crisis Theatre and The Living Newspapers traces a history of the living newspaper as a theatre of crisis from Soviet Russia (1910s), through the Federal Theatre Project of the Great Depression in America (1930s), to Augusto Boal's teatro jornal in Brazil (1970s), and its resonance with documentary forms deployed in the final years of apartheid in South Africa (1990s), up until the present day in the UK (2020s). Across this Element, the author is interested in what a transnational and transhistorical examination of the living newspaper through the lens of crisis reveals about the ways in which theatre can intervene in our collective social, economic and political life. By holding these diverse examples together, the author asserts the Living Newspaper as a form of Crisis Theatre.

Book Synopsis The National Stage by : Loren Kruger
Download or read book The National Stage written by Loren Kruger and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-08 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of staging a nation dates from the Enlightenment, but the full force of the idea emerges only with the rise of mass politics. Comparing English, French, and American attempts to establish national theatres at moments of political crisis—from the challenge of socialism in late nineteenth-century Europe to the struggle to "salvage democracy" in Depression America—Kruger poses a fundamental question: in the formation of nationhood, is the citizen-audience spectator or participant? The National Stage answers this question by tracing the relation between theatre institution and public sphere in the discourses of national identity in Britain, France, and the United States. Exploring the boundaries between history and theory, text and performance, this book speaks to theatre and social historians as well as those interested in the theoretical range of cultural studies.
