People's Theatre in Amerika.
Taylor, Karen Malpede
A history of the people's theatre movement in this country from the early 1920s to the early 1970s, this book deals with the structural and thematic connections between the radical theatre of the twenties and thirties and current work of such revolutionary theatres as the Living Theatre, Open Theatre, Bread and Puppet Theatre, El Teatro Campesino, and San Francisco Mime Troupe. Combined with critical analyses of contemporary theatre groups, movements, and collectives are scripts for mass chants, agitprops, interviews, manifestoes, articles, and letters by the individuals involved in (people's) radical theatre in America.
