Festival 2009: American Theatre Between the World Wars
Plays by Eugene O'Neill, Susan Glaspell, and Thoron Wilder
Directed by Kayla Dvorak, Jacob Kaufman and Melissa Markus
An examination of the period when the American Theatre matured from a fledgling sideshow of sentiment and uninspired 'entertainments' to a serious, powerful, commanding force in the Western theatre. A renaissance in serious drama, experimentation, actor training and theatre-as-serious-artistry characterized this period on the American stage, as did an explosion in the development of ‘short’ and 'one-act' plays.
April 3-4 at 7:30 p.m., April 5 at 1 p.m.
