Black History through Black Theatical Expression, May 28, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Black Theatre, USA: Plays by African Americans: The Recent Period, 1935-Today (Paperback)
This anthology contain a wealth of plays written by black playwrights. While looking for less familiar plays to produce with a primary minority theatre group, I stumbled upon this gem. Within its pages, I was able to find several plays and playwrights I had never heard of before. I enjoyed reading these plays and were able to find works to produce. The plays also provided less known monologes for auditions. Additionally, the various plays provided ample selections of scenes for scene study work. Although some pieces are dated, they are good clasical "Black" pieces. The more modern plays in the anthology date back to 1960's. Never- the- less, it's a good find and a must for my theatre library.
