| Description: |
In colonial theatre in America, much of what we know about performance has come from the detractors of theatre and not its producers. This study explores the culture's social support of the theatre in the material evidence it left behind, as well as the immaterial evidence: the culture's memory of theatre, and its enormous desire for it. |
| Synopsis: |
History, they say, has a filthy tongue. In the case of colonial theatre in America, what we know about performance has come from the detractors of theatre and not its producers. Yet this does not account for the flourishing theatrical circuit established between 1760 and 1776. This study explores the culture's social support of the theatre. |
