The African American Theatrical Body: Reception, Performance, and the Stage
Colbert, Soyica Diggs (Assistant Professor of English, Dartmouth College, New Hampshire)
Soyica Colbert explores the history and reception of black performance traditions, including preaching, dancing, blues and gospel, and theatre itself. Examining the works of a wide range of twentieth-century dramatists, the study shows how the African American experience is portrayed on stage and how this interpretation has changed over time.
