SoSe 22: American Theatre
Birte Wege
Kommentar
This seminar will offer an introduction to and overview of American Theatre in the twentieth century. We will combine theoretical readings from literary studies and theatre studies with a range of primary texts, juxtaposing canonical pieces with lesser-known, yet equally significant experimental works. We will explore the possibilities of the dramatic form in historical context and analyze how American theatre engaged and continues to engage with the dominant political issues of the day, operating, as Theresa Saxon observes, “as a platform for examining construction of racial, ethnic, gendered, national and ultimately human identities.” Playwrights to be discussed will include (but are not limited to) Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Lillian Hellman, Edward Albee, Ntozake Shange, María Irene Fornés, and Tony Kushner.
