Description

Explore the complex connections between class, poverty, and ethnicity in American theatre through this scholarly work by Westgate. Part of the Palgrave Studies in Theatre and Performance History series, this book examines the era from 1890 to 1916. It uses traditional archival research and reception theory to analyze how slum plays functioned as enactments of emerging social definitions. By looking at cultural histories of slumming and literary representations of poverty, the text provides a deep look into how theatre and entertainment culture operated during this period. It serves as a significant resource for those studying national and theatrical history, offering insights into popular dramaturgy and the ethical obligations associated with the representation of the urban poor. This volume is an essential addition to any collection focused on performing arts history and the social impact of early 20th-century stage productions.
