Reviews
"Even in a publishing series as uniformly superb as the invaluable Library of America, there are some books that stand out. This is, without question, one of the Library of America's stellar contributions to American literature of the past few years--as well as one of the richest and most readable collections of writing on the American stage that you will ever come across." -- Buffalo News, "Each of us who loves the theatre has a secret list of the great shows we never got to see. That list keeps growing, no matter how diligent our theater going. So does our maddening sense of wistfulness and loss. This delectable volume offers comfort. Fortunately for us, great writers have always been on hand, sitting in the audience, to capture the best of those fleeting moments. Better yet, theatre has often fired their imaginations, stirring wide-ranging reflections on the world outside the playhouse. Laurence Senelick, the volume's judicious and tireless editor, has sifted through two centuries of the best writing about American theatre and put these literary riches on display. A more diversely entertaining collection is impossible to imagine. Open up this book to any page and experience the glories of two centuries of American theatre. You may feel a pang of remorse - stunning things happened onstage, and you missed out. But these writers bring the moments back to life. They will almost, almost make you feel that you were there." -John Lithgow, from the foreword

Synopsis
Here is the story, told firsthand through electric, deeply engaged writing, of America's living theater, high and low, mainstream and experimental. Drawing on history, criticism, memoir, fiction, poetry, and parody, editor Laurence Senelick presents writers with the special knack "to distill both the immediate experience and the recollected impression, to draw the reader into the charmed circle and conjure up what has already vanished." Through the words of playwrights and critics, actors and directors, and others behind the footlights, the entertainments and high artistic strivings of successive eras come vividly, sometimes tumultuously, to life. Observers from Washington Irving and Fanny Trollope to Walt Whitman and Mark Twain evoke the world of the nineteenth-century playhouse in all its raucous vitality. Henry James confesses his early enthusiasm for playgoing; Willa Cather reviews provincial productions of Uncle Tom's Cabin and Antony and Cleopatra. The increasing diversity and ambition of the American theater is reflected in Hutchins Hapgood's account of New York's Yiddish theaters at the turn of the century, Carl Van Vechten's review of the Sicilian actress Mimi Aguglia, Alain Locke's comments on the emerging African-American theater in the 1920s, and Ezra Pound's response to James Joyce's play Exiles and theatrical modernism. Enthusiasts for the New Stagecraft, such as Lee Simonson and Djuna Barnes, are matched by champions of pop culture such as Gilbert Seldes and Fred Allen. S. J. Perelman lampoons Clifford Odets; Edmund Wilson acclaims Minsky's Burlesque; Harold Clurman explains Stanislavski's Method; Gore Vidal dissects the compromises of commercial playwriting. A host of playwrights--among them Thornton Wilder, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, Lorraine Hansberry, Edward Albee, Wendy Wasserstein, David Mamet, and Tony Kushner--are joined by such renowned critics as Stark Young, George Jean Nathan, Brooks Atkinson, and Eric Bentley. LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nation's literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, America's best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.
