Title: AMERICAN DRAMA

Section: 01

Description:
American Drama begins as soon as "America" does and, like all drama, reflects the concerns of the population for whom it is written: colonial settlers, immigrants, laborers, and others. While taking up the "usual suspects" (O'Neill, Miller, Albee), we will also engage with plays from the settler/Revolutionary period, from Depression-era (the “Living Newspapers” of the Federal Theater Project) to Sixties and Seventies protests, to Sam Shepard, August Wilson. Lynn Nottage, Ntozake Shange. Drama is the liveliest of the lively arts and always tells our own multiply diverse stories.
