Theatres of the Left 1880-1935 - Workers´ theatre movements in Britain and America
Samuel, Raphael & MacColl, Ewan & Cosgrove, Stuart
Beskrivning:Ill w b/w photos. The Theatres of the Left discussed in this volume were, in intention at least, activist, perceiving art as a weapon of struggle and enlightenment, and participation and performance as emancipatory acts. Theatres of the Left sees the Workers´ Theatre Movement of the 1920´s both as an Anglo-American expression of "Proletkult" and as an outcome of a more indigenous tradition, going back to the Band of Hope and temperance dramas of nineteenth-century Nonconformism. The book also reprints a number of crucial texts, some of them for the first time, as well as stage notes and glimpses of the dramaturgical controversies which accompanied them.
