"The best kind of subjectivity -- enlightening to others and, in every sense, encouraging." -- Stanley Kauffmann

A collection of eighteen essays articulating a contemporary poetics of text and performance against a background of American culture, Theatrewritings moves easily from avant-garde groups (Mabou Mines, The Wooster Group, Ontological-Hysteric Theater) to writers as diverse as Sam Shepard, Lee Breuer, and Lillian Hellman, and to popular singers such as Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland.
