Description and Table of Contents
Description
Covers only manuscript material and ephemera available to the public, and no published texts, in order to promote the study of performative elements and foster their considering in critically interpreting dramatic literature, all in line with the shift in drama studies over the past two decades away from text-based criticism to the analysis of performance. Also suggests the potential value of the documentary material listed; ways of approaching and evaluating the work of individual performers; and the contribution of directors, designers, and producers. From over 100 archives in the US, Britain, and Europe, describes material for 175 playwrights, arranged alphabetically. Works are indexed.
