This book contains a dozen essays by a range of established
scholars and performing artists on issues in post-1969 American gay
and lesbian theatre and drama, the period after a raid at the
Stonewall Inn helped spawn a 'gay revolution'. The collection
covers playwrights, millennial dramatists, and actors while
exploring the history of gay-themed theatre and drama, the breadth
of stage roles, and the dramatic representation of homosexual
characters from various perspectives. These include the impact of
AIDS, contemporary American politics, images of homophobia,
gay-themed plays aimed at Theatre for Youth audiences, and other
topics.
