Susan Glaspell and Sophie Treadwell presents critical
introductions to two of the most significant American dramatists of
the early twentieth century. Glaspell and Treadwell led American
Theatre from outdated melodrama to the experimentation of great
European playwrights like Ibsen, Strindberg and Shaw.
This is the first book to deal with Glaspell and Treadwell 's
plays from a theatrical, rather than literary, perspective, and
presents a comprehensive overview of their work from lesser known
plays to seminal productions of Trifles and Machinal.
Although each woman pursued her own themes, subjects and manner
of stage production, this shared volume underscores the theatrical
and cultural conditions influencing female playwrights in modern
America.
