Written in a clear, accessible, storytelling style, African American Theater: A
Cultural Companion will shine a bright new light on the culture that has
historically nurtured and inspired black theater. Functioning as an interactive
guide for students and teachers, African American Theater takes the reader on a
journey to discover how social realities impacted the plays that dramatists wrote
and produced.
The journey begins around
1850
when most African people were enslaved in
America. Along the way, cultural milestones such as Reconstruction, the Harlem
Renaissance, and the Black Freedom Movement are explored, The journey
concludes with a discussion of how the past still plays out in the works of
contemporary playwrights like August Wilson and Suzan-Lori Parks.
African American Theater moves unsung heroes like Robert Abbott and Jo Ann
Gibson Robinson to the foreground, but does not neglect the race giants. For
actors looking for material to perform, the book offers exercises to create new
monologues and scenes. Rich with myths, history, and first-person accounts by
ordinary people telling their extraordinary stories, African American Theater; A
Cultural Companion will entertain while it educates,
