History of American Theatre, first published in 1999, begins in the

entertainment, European influences, theatre in and beyond New York,
the rise of the Little Theatre movement, changing audiences,

and architecture. Contextualising chapters explore the role of

and beyond. This definitive history of American theatre includes
contributions from the following distinguished academics - Thomas
Postlewait, John Frick, Tice L. Miller, Ronald Wainscott, Brenda
